Some organizations choose to customize the certification delivery. In these cases, PREP may work directly with its licensed consultants having advanced levels of PREP certification to deliver specialized applications for the client in an integrated approach of “Classroom” and online training.

- Regional “Classroom Training” Certification
- In-House “Classroom” Certification
