Hi! It's Vencer. I need to obtain the braille training material for a 
class. Please send a copy of the mannual to po box 27884 Macon GA. 31221. 
I am likely to take the test soon as I am already a transcriber by trade 
and just need to submit the transcript.

[Trainer-talk] NCLB Braille Exam at NFB National Convention








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



The National Blindness Professional Certification Board (NBPCB) would 
like to again offer NCLB braille certification at the NFB National 
Convention in <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = 
"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" />Dallas this July. 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.

<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" 
/>

If you are interested in testing at the NFB national convention, we 
request that you fill out our brief online interest form with a note 
that you are interested in testing in Dallas. Please do so before 
February 10th. This is an interest form only and is NOT an 
application. A sufficient number of candidates are needed before the 
test room can be scheduled; Thus, by filling out the interest form 
you are increasing the chances that the exam will be offered. You 
will be notified of the decision by mid February.



We urge that you fill out the brief online NCLB interest form at:
