Accredited Practical Exam Proctors are authorized to offer the NWSA practical exam at approved NWSA Practical Test Sites.
Practical Exam Proctor accreditation is valid for five years. Once accredited, you will receive a Practical Exam Proctor packet with the documentation necessary to conduct NWSA practical exams. You will also receive an official NWSA accreditation wallet card listing the practical exams for which you are accredited and are eligible to administer practical exams.
