Payment via Credit Card
The National Board accepts American Express, MasterCard, and Visa for credit card payment. For security reasons, we do not accept credit card payments via email. If you prefer this method of payment, please use the online registration form or contact the National Board Accounting Department via telephone at 614.888.8320, ext. 217, or fax to 614.888.0750.
Payment via Check
Students wishing to pay by check cannot register for training online but must contact the training department for registration information via email or by calling 614.431.3216. Students paying by check will not be guaranteed a seat in the requested class until payment is received. If payment is not received at least 30 days prior to the start of class or received after a class date becomes full, students will automatically be rescheduled to the next available class date, as class size is limited.
Students will receive two emails when registering for National Board training: (1) a registration acknowledgement email upon receipt of registration by the training department, and (2) a confirmation email six to eight weeks prior to the start of class. If you have not received a confirmation email please call the National Board to confirm your enrollment. Note: Please be sure to have class confirmation before making travel arrangements.
Students traveling from abroad may request a visa invitation letter AFTER enrolling in a course or seminar by sending an email to the training department at training@nationalboard.org.
