Workshop Schedule
For the past 13 years, Norman Dorf has conducted workshops for Interns wishing to gain additional knowledge and confidence with regard to the Graphic Divisions of the examination. These workshops, held in various areas of both the US and Canada, with groups of as many as 150 Interns, can help keep preparation costs down, and allow participants to interact and discuss detailed and/or general concerns for each type of vignette problem. Workshops have been designed to allow variable interaction with the Interns, depending on the available time, needs and budgets, as described below:
TYPE A : EVENING SEMINAR
A 3 hour seminar on the Graphics Divisions of the NCARB exam, with an in-depth analysis of what it takes to pass these divisions. Handouts are provided.
TYPE B : FULL DAY WORKSHOP
An 8 hour comprehensive review of all 3 Graphic Divisions of the examination, with problem solving exercises throughout the day. An in-depth analysis of preparation recommendations, fatal errors, time saving techniques, what to know to pass the exam, and ways of improving your scores. Various handouts are distributed.
TYPE C : WEEKEND WORKSHOP
Friday Evening : 4-5 hour seminar / lecture on the B. Planning and B. Technology Divisions, with discussions on all aspects of passing and failing approaches and solutions to the various problem types. Various handouts are distributed.
Saturday (all day) : A mock exam for the B. Planning and B. Technology Divisions is conducted for interested Interns.
Sunday : 3 hour interactive seminar to discuss, mark-up and grade the various mock exam solutions for individuals wishing to get a grader’s insight on their efforts.
Sunday : 3 hour workshop on the Site Graphics Division, with selected problem solving and grading of typical test problem types
Instruction fees vary, depending on the workshop type and location of the seminar. There is a concerted effort to keep costs for Interns to a minimum. Comments on these workshops have been collected in testimonials.
