This three-part webinar series is designed by CSAEd-CR certified NIRSA members to provide their best tips and tricks for studying for the certification exam. We’ll dive into specific competency areas that you’ll need to understand to prepare for the examination and provide some study resources that other certificants found useful. Additionally, you’ll gain access to an exclusive NIRSA Connect community where you can connect with peers who are also seeking certification, form study groups, and share new resources. These webinars will be live and recorded. If you are interested in joining in the live Q&A with current certificants, you must register at least 24 hours before the scheduled webinar. Otherwise, you will still have access to the webinar, but you will need to utilize the connect community for your questions.

While collegiate recreation projects are major undertakings, their success often traces back to subtle details or nuanced decisions that end up defining a project. It’s important for recreation and university leadership to understand these details, so they don’t regret them years down the line. Nobody wants to overlook a detail and be left thinking, “I wish we’d known that then.” This webinar will give recreation leaders the information they need to make the most of the details, to seize key decisions large and small, and create longstanding successful projects on their campus. For new build and renovation projects alike, details make the difference, and this session will empower attendees to better conquer them moving forward. This webinar will speak to recreation professionals at every level.
