APPROVED EVALUATORS

NACPI works diligently to provide evaluators who are knowledgeable in this field and fair to our members.  You will find that NACPI lists two types of evaluators – Senior Evaluators and Standard Evaluators.

Senior Evaluators are trainers and/or handlers at the Master level who have chosen to be an integral part of our association.  Not only do they provide evaluations, they also teach at our conferences and workshops.  You will also find them available by email to discuss any training related issues you are having.  Members are required to be certified by a Senior Evaluator every other year, at a minimum.

Standard Evaluators are trainers and/or handlers who have been personally referred by a Senior Evaluator and have met and/or exceeded the minimum requirements set forth by NACPI. Standard Evaluators are used most often for our proxy certifications, though you will see some of them at our events as well.
