The Outboard Propeller Written Exam is the first step in becoming NMPA Certified for Boat Propeller repair.
Certification requires both written and practical tests to establish your knowledge level and show your competency as an expert propeller repair professional.
An 80% or higher score is required on the written exam before taking the practical exam. The practical exam is a pass or fail test. You MUST repair a damaged injected propeller to match the master blade geometry (to within acceptable variance) to pass the test.
Certifications are progressive, which means you must first hold your Aluminum Certification to sit for your Stainless Steel, and both Aluminum and Stainless Steel Certifications are required to test for your Inboard Propeller Certification.
Successfully completing the Certification Course allows members to highlight their business as a Certified Technical Member of NMPA.
