It’s Exam Week at the INA! Does that give you bad memories of finals week in High School or University? Don’t worry, we want to change that! This exam week is all about ways you can further your career by taking our improved access Nanny Credential Exam and brand new Newborn Care Credential Exam. Improved access you say? Absolutely! Starting May 1st you can take both of these exams from your own home computer or laptop, even a tablet, and you don’t need to secure a proctor! Your proctor will be there online to observe you take your exam. The process is simple and easy.
Now there is no excuse not to add INA Credentialed Nanny and/or INA Credentialed Newborn Care Specialist to your resume. Once you pass your exam you get a certificate to add to your portfolio as well as a specialized logo that you can add to your business cards, website, resume, email signature, etc. You will really stand out among your peers who do not have these credentials.
The cost of these exams is $75/each for INA members and $100/each for non-members. The new price corresponds to the price we pay to the online proctor company. You will still be able to take the exam at the original price at the INA Conference and when other groups get together to take the exam, but more about that later this week.
But don’t just take it from us that being an INA Credentialed Nanny or Newborn Care Specialist move you forward in your career.
Have a listen to what Beth Ann Davis has to say about it:
I have been a member of the International Nanny Association for years and thanks to my mentor/friend Laura I learned about the International Nanny Association Credential Exam. A few of my nanny girlfriends and I got together for weekly study sessions and after a lot of studying and hard work, I passed the Credential Exam! Since I became 1 of 15 nannies in the entire state of South Carolina that is an International Nanny Association Credentialed Nanny my career has skyrocketed! I feel that since I am Credentialed, I am looked at as more professional than I was before as I’m an “elite nanny” now. Since I became Credentialed I make $5.00 more an hour as a Professional Nanny and I really feel it is because I AM Credentialed. I feel that my family, friends, and colleagues respect me more since I became Credentialed.
In addition, we will be having our Town Hall event this Wednesday, May 1st when we will announce a roll-out discount on the online proctored exams for the month of May! We know you have lots of questions, so be sure to check in for more Exam Week blogs as well as for Wednesday’s Town Hall. INA Exam Week is just getting started!
