NCTRC Hardship Fee Waiver

NCTRC believes that the fees associated with the certification application process should not be a deterrent to furthering your career. In this spirit, we are pleased to continue to support the Hardship Fee Waiver program. This program is designed to provide a waiver of NCTRC fees associated with the CTRS® credential for those who qualify.

Individuals may apply for a waiver of fees associated with any NCTRC application if they have experienced a hardship that has caused any of the following:

a. an unanticipated life event that causes a substantial financial burden and losses in major life areas
b. a combination of life events or responsibilities that result in a snowball effect of substantial financial burden
c. complex medical issues that cause a substantial financial burden

If you believe that you might qualify for a fee waiver, please contact the NCTRC office and speak with a Credentialing Specialist about the process.
