We hope that you will enjoy the flexibility that the NASAR on line SARTECH III certification exam offers you.  We recognize that the majority of individuals involved in Search and Rescue are volunteers with limited availability for training and testing.  Therefore, this exam is available to you "24 / 7 / 365" so you can complete this important step in your SAR training according to your schedule, not ours.

 

If you wish to take the official SARTECH III online exam and receive official SARTECH III certification, NASAR patch and SARTECH III rocker you may do so for a fee of $50. 

 

If you wish to take the unofficial version of the SARTECH III online exam and do not desire certification, a NASAR patch or SARTECH III rocker you may do so for a fee of $15.
