Finalists' Federation Visit and Orientation

It is very important that as a FEREP candidate you gain a more in-depth understanding of Federation. Therefore, if you advance to the Finalist round,  we will arrange a visit and orientation with your local federation. The purposes of the orientation are to provide you with further information about federations, including:

  • The structure, function, and goals of federation
  • The role of the professional
  • The role of the volunteer, board, lay person, etc.

Your visit also provides the FEREP Program with a second opportunity to asses your candidacy.
