The APR Cohort is a virtual program with 7 modules open to NSPRA members as a free member benefit, and open to non-members for a fee. The cohort program is designed specifically for those who are serious about earning accreditation but who aren’t sure how or when to start.

Once every two weeks, the cohort meets virtually to learn about the accreditation process from NSPRA Accreditation Committee members and other APRs, to build their professional network and to discuss ideas and challenges. Virtual live meetings are held every other Tuesday via Zoom for one hour beginning at 3 p.m. ET (2 p.m. CT, 1 p.m. MT, noon PT). Sessions are recorded and cohort members are given access to a learning management system to view recordings and additional learning materials to support their studies.

The Spring 2026 APR Cohort will hold live virtual meetings on the following dates:

• Tuesday, April 7, 2026
• Tuesday, April 21, 2026
