Facilitated by Kris “Coach K” Fountain, this highly interactive 2 ½-day training workshop equips its participants with information to successfully pass the National HUD Housing Counseling Certification (HCC) Exam. This workshop has a two-tiered approach. First, an in-depth review of the 6 core competencies contained in the HUD HCC exam. The second tier is designed to equip participants with proven test-taking techniques and strategies specific to HUD’s HCC multiple-choice exam. The workshop appeals to multiple learning styles and is ideally suited for experienced housing counselors who have not been in a test-taking environment for an extended time and novice housing counselors too. A draft agenda can be found here.
All participants will be responsible for making their own travel arrangements. If you have any questions about any of the training sessions please contact Stacie Darden at sdarden@nchousing.org, or at 919-800-0878.
