Going for the RP

Most of the members are working diligently towards study for the Registered Parliamentarian tests. It's why we're here. But this is not an easy test. It currently consists of five tests spread over the whole of Roberts Rules of Order and the test bank contains 1200 multiple choice questions.

Why the rush?  Because this test is about to be replaced by an even harder testing program, that emphasizes practical knowledge from real-world meeting scenarios rather than simple knowledge memory. It promises to better train parliamentarians to meet the world they will have to operate in, but it requires a different mindset to prepare for.

So, we're rushing towards late September to get at least 2 tests completed, excluding Test 1 Research, in order to grandfather into the current testing program. Of course, once you get far enough to take those first two tests, it's only a small step to take the other three and finish the program.

Here's a little info on how those tests are configured. For more information and help with finding resources for study, reach out to our Contact Us page. We're here to help.

Rules are based on the regard for rights:
of the majority,
of the minority, especially a strong minority - greater than one-third,
of individual members,
of absentees, and
of all these together.

Under the rules of parliamentary law, a deliberative body is a free agent -- free to do what it wants to do with the greatest measure of protection to itself and of consideration of the rights of its members.
