Certification by Training or Assessment
The "Tutoring Foundations" online training program is self-paced, self-scheduled, and estimated to require approximately 15 to 20 learner hours for each of the three modules, 45-60 hours for the comprehensive program. Learners may begin working minutes after on-line registration. Each learner is supervised by an NTA Master Tutor who reviews and responds to course work.

The "Tutor Skills Test" may be taken at the Level I Basic, Intermediate or Advanced levels or as a Comprehensive battery. Registrants may begin the two hour time limit, essay question exam at any time. Tests are reviewed by NTA Master Tutors, and a summary evaluation is provided to employers with registrant approval.
