ROAD TO LICENSURE
SFNOMA provides exam payments for SFNOMA members ONLY. If you are sitting for your NCARB, CSE, AICP, NCIDQ, and/or P.E. exams, SFNOMA will provide payment for 2 Exams per quarter. In order to qualify, you must:

Serve on an SFNOMA committee with a minimum 8 hours per quarter.
Have the President, Vice President, Treasurer, Programs, Events, or Communications Directors/Chairs sign off on volunteer hours.
Provide an employer affidavit that exams will not be reimbursed by the employer if SFNOMA is paying for your exam. (This provides fairness for all SFNOMA members because SFNOMA pays for the exams PASS or FAIL and members are NOT ALLOWED to request for employer reimbursement if SFNOMA has paid for your exam)
