NARM Study Retreat

NARM Study Retreat

Intensive Preparation for taking the North American Registry of Midwives Exam

Five days of focused review, taught and guided by Vicki Penwell, a midwife with experience preparing over 400 students to pass NARM and become CPMs using this method of intense retreat review and practice testing. While there are no guarantees, a very high percentage of students who studied with Vicki have passed NARM the first time.

This special retreat offers five full days of study with a different practice multiple-choice test each day, oral quizzes, individual guidance with test taking tips, and evenings spent in review, reflection, reading, nature walks and spiritual calm. The NARM Study Retreat is held in a quiet setting with no distractions, no TV, and best of all, you will have no responsibility except studying for your midwifery board exam! Personalized help can be given to each participant to learn their own unique learning style.

Update: In June 2014 the NARM exam went to online format, and so did this NARM STUDY RETREAT! You can now take our practice tests at the retreat on a computer to practice this new format for testing. BRING YOUR OWN LAPTOP OR IPAD!
