The FPRA Capital Chapter APR Boot Camp is a two-day intensive workshop that assists candidates with completing the APR Questionnaire, preparing their Panel Presentation, and receiving in-depth feedback through a group mock exam exercise.
This course is designed for busy professionals whose schedules don’t permit extensive preparation; however, it is highly encouraged that candidates have a thorough knowledge of the APR Study Guide as this course is not for those just beginning their APR journey. Participation is limited to six (6) individuals. Refreshments and lunch will be provided.
At the conclusion of the course, candidates will be better positioned to advance the panel presentation, have an in-depth understanding of how to align their study efforts with the written examination and be confident in their examination approach to achieve accreditation. Candidates will be responsible for requesting to sit for the examination process with their Chapter’s Director of Credentialing.
