The Instructor Prep Course is offered once per semester during the Fall and Spring semesters. The course fee is $50, and includes the option to purchase, at a discounted rate, an AFAA certification course* to help prospective instructors fulfill the
nationally accredited certification requirement for the position. The AFAA course fee includes online modules, study materials, a textbook, practice exams, and the certification exam.

*Note that the AFAA certification is not the only certification that meets the nationally accredited certification requirement.
