Notice of Independent Professional Certification & Exam Fee Administration
1. Independent Certification Authority:
Renewed Purpose Leadership Fellowship (RPLF) is a religious training institution dedicated to equipping candidates for ordained and licensed ministries. RPLF awards internal, non-degree Academic Certificates of Course Completion and Ministerial Competency. RPLF does not grant professional healthcare licenses or national certifications. The eight allied health certification pathways offered within the Guild of Marketplace Wellness & Stewardship are strictly preparation programs designed to qualify eligible students to sit for independent, third-party national examinations administered by the National Healthcareer Association (NHA).
2. Institutional Responsibility vs. Candidate Responsibility
The successful completion of an RPLF vocational track validates your academic and practical readiness. However, the NHA awards any professional credential solely at its discretion, based on meeting its strict testing requirements, identity verification, and passing scores. RPLF does not guarantee that any student will pass an external national exam or secure secular employment based on program completion.
3. Examination Fees and Voucher Administration
External Fee Standard: Costs associated with the NHA national certification exams, study materials, and practice portals are established strictly by the National Healthcareer Association and are subject to change without institutional notice. These fees are entirely separate from RPLF’s internal tuition and ministerial program costs.
Voucher Distribution: Depending on the specific student enrollment agreement or active cohort funding models (e.g., Institution Pay vs. Candidate Pay structures), exam access vouchers may be distributed to qualifying students.
Eligibility Criteria for Vouchers: To receive an institutional exam voucher or registration authorization through the RPLF-NHA portal, a student must fulfill all academic prerequisites. This includes maintaining a minimum grade threshold, fulfilling all mandatory community service/practical training hours, and receiving an official endorsement from their respective Guild.
Voucher Limitations: Vouchers are non-transferable, carry strict expiration dates dictated by the testing window, and hold a cash value of zero. RPLF is not financially responsible for replacing expired, lost, or forfeited vouchers resulting from a student's failure to schedule or attend a confirmed examination session.
