well as be available to serve as your proctor. Contact our President,
or any of our officers on our "About HSAP"
page and if you are interested, come to a local unit meeting and meet
our members. We enjoy seeing new faces and invite all to attend.

you are ready to take the test.... now what? You need to send in your
application with a check for your dues to NAP & HSAP ($75 + $10)

receives the test and you take it on the pre-specified day that was
stated on your application.
