About this event

  • Event lasts 8 hours 30 minutes

    We will meet online and review the content that is tested in the Inventory, Analysis and Project Mgmt section of the LARE. This section is mostly fact-based and can be conquered with memorization and reading before you tackle the more skills- and experience-based content of the Design and Grading sections. This course will help you organize your study process and connect with a national network of other LARE candidates who are seeking support, just like you are. Please visit the LARE Preparatory Courses page for more detailed information.

    Frequently asked questions

    What if I can’t make this date?

    We record every webinar and make it available to attendees through a password-protected Vimeo link. If you would like to use the recordings for all or part of the webinar, register as usual and you will receive the links after the weekend is over. Contact us if you want to register AFTER the event.

    How are course materials delivered to attendees?

    Go to the Eventbrite page and look for the 'Course Materials' link. It will take you to the course folder, where you'll find pdf copies of all the reading and exercises, plus additional reference materials we have found helpful.

    What is your refund policy?

    Course materials are shared upon registration, so we may choose to give a partial refund. We can be very flexible if you want to attend a later date as a transfer at no additional cost – just email us and let us know what’s going on.

    What if I take your course and don’t pass my exam?

    The LARE is a difficult exam that requires significant study time after the webinar is over. We help you structure that effort and connect you with study partners and resources. If you do not pass your exam, contact us to repeat the course at no cost.

    I don't want people to know I am taking the LARE. Can I attend anonymously?

    Yes, you can. Let us know when you register and we will not include you in the class study group list that is issued at the end of the weekend. You can choose how you participate in the Zoom room, or just use the recordings to prepare on your own.
