Attention all interested in receiving National Certification in Literary
Braille (NCLB):

 

If you are interested in testing for National Certification in Literary
Braille, NCLB, at the NFB national convention in Dallas this July, please
e-mail Louise Walch, testing coordinator, at braille at nbpcb.org
<mailto:braille at nbpcb.org> . Please send your e-mail this week if possible.
We are eager to hear from you.

 

A sufficient number of candidates are needed before the test room can be
scheduled; Thus, by e-mailing you are increasing the chances that the exam
will be offered. You will be notified of the decision later this month. Your
e-mail is merely to give us an idea of who is interested and does not
obligate you in any way. 

 

The NCLB is the only nationally recognized certification in literary braille
geared specifically toward teachers. The NCLB is a five-year renewable
certification awarded to those who successfully pass all four sections of
the National Literary Braille Competency Test. The cost is $250.

 

For more information, updates, deadlines, sample exams, and to apply online,

If you have further questions or would like to host an exam in your area,
contact Louise Walch, NCLB Test Coordinator at braille at nbpcb.org
