Six Steps to Certification:

1. Request or download an Application for Council Record.
   
2. Submit application and fee to NCARB.
3. NCARB responds with instructions and forms for your use
   in verifying education and training. (NCARB contacts the jurisdiction[s] where you are registered for your status and examination grades.)
4. You complete your portion of the forms and forward them to your verification sources (employers, schools, etc.) who will return them directly to NCARB.
5. When all requested information has been received, your qualifications will be evaluated. If eligible, you will be notified and asked to update your experience record and pay the certification fee.

6. You will be issued your Certificate when NCARB receives your payment and employment update.
