NASAR Reminder

SAR Team,

As you know, NASAR now requires all certified Tech I, II, III to recertify every three years. If your certificate is dated prior to January 1, 2013, your certification runs out on January 1, 2016. If your certificate has a date after January 1, 2016, it runs out three years from the date on the certificate. NASAR is being very liberal with the training requirements, any SAR related training, exercises and actual searches count toward these hours. Currently, documentation is not being required. I believe most of you have easily met these requirements. To get your recertification, go to www.nasar.org and go to the bookstore. Choose “Shop by 100 Top Merchandise” and select the recertification that you are applying for and pay the fee. Unless you kept up your membership, you are a nonmember. THE BOOKSTORE WILL BE CLOSED FROM CHRISTMAS DAY TO THE END OF THE YEAR!! Today through Wednesday may be your last chance to renew. 

You do not need to send in any documentation at this point. If NASAR wants it, they will request it and I will help you with it.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Tom
