Melissa's NBC-HWC study group was a great help in my exam preparation. The course was well-structured and covered the content effectively, which made it easier for me to learn and retain information. The study guides and practice questions provided were particularly helpful and helped me feel more confident about my exam readiness. Melissa's approach to exam preparation was very effective, and I'm glad to have passed the exam as a result of her guidance. I would definitely recommend Melissa's NBC-HWC study group to anyone who is looking for an effective and efficient way to prepare for the exam.

The way that Melissa taught me how to look at a question and analyze it to find out exactly what the question was asking and not to assume any other parts was VERY helpful for me.  Her detailed and well-designed practice questions made me feel more comfortable on exam day. I personally feel that Melissa's questions were harder and longer compared to the actual exam.  Thank you, Melissa, for your kind words, your patience as you explained your answers in class and always having a smile on your face:)

I am absolutely delighted to recommend Melissa Pylypchuk’s NBCHWC exam preparation programme. Thanks to her expert guidance, I passed the Board Exam on my first attempt.

Melissa’s video content is of exceptional quality—clear, engaging, and perfectly pitched to help you understand even the trickiest concepts. The range of practice questions she provides is outstanding, closely mirroring the style and complexity of the real exam, which gave me real confidence on test day. I found the combination of self-paced materials and practice questions invaluable for reinforcing my knowledge and honing my test-taking skills.

What really set Melissa’s programme apart was her practical advice on stress and time management. Her study plans and weekly tips helped me stay organised and calm throughout the process, ensuring I was well-prepared both mentally and theoretically.

Melissa is also incredibly approachable and supportive. She made herself available for 1:1 conversations whenever I needed extra help or reassurance, always responding promptly and thoughtfully to my questions. It was lovely to have a 1:1 with her a week prior to taking my exam to give me that final boost of confidence.

I highly recommend anyone preparing for their NBHWC exam to consider getting help from Melissa. Her programme is a wise investment in your success—she truly cares about her students and goes above and beyond to help you achieve your goals.

Melissa's exam prep course really prepared me for what to expect to know on the exam. She helped us identify what to study for and provided lots of learning resources. I especially loved the practice questions in the live meetings and in the Facebook group, and the flashcards on Quizlet. Melissa was supportive and offered help outside of the live meetups. She was also quick to respond when I emailed her a question. I highly recommend her exam prep course for the NBC-HWC.

-Jenny Smith, NBHWC

Melissa's course was an important part of my preparation for the NBHWC exam. Her study materials encouraged creating a study plan, keeping track of insights as well as suggestions of how to study and retain information. All were helpful in the study process, keeping me on track and motivated. Also, her calm, positive attitude created a trusting atmosphere in class where I felt free to ask questions and voice my concerns. From her class sessions, I gained a greater understanding of how to approach exam questions, what types of questions are possible on the exam and a greater confidence in taking the test. Outside of class I was able to address any last minute concerns about the exam in a timely manner because she was generous enough to welcome questions by email. Plus, she was on the alert for changing health metrics. As soon as new health metrics were released, she informed us by email and documented the new metrics in her study materials. For all these reasons, I strongly recommend Melissa, her course and course materials as a valuable resource for the NBHWC exam!

Melissa provides a thorough course with materials and live Zoom meet-ups that support a coach through the studying and review process for the NBHWC exam. She is personable and wants her students to succeed! When I sat down for the exam, I felt confident thanks to her course.

-Madison Huber-Smith, NBHWC

Melissa's NBHWC exam prep class was a super positive, well-rounded experience. It was a key contributor to my preparation and confidence going into the exam, which had a successful passing outcome! From the course outlines and study guides to the well-planned live sessions, Melissa's course helped me stay on track. I also found that my perspective shifted to encompass a broader NBHWC perspective, rather than only that from my coaching program. Melissa's practice tests and Facebook group questions allowed me to practice the 'art' of test taking first hand, with carefully worded questions to emulate what did show up on the exam. There were a few times I reached out to her to ask for clarification or an explanation for further learning, and she responded timely with thoughtful answers and a supportive outlook. I recommend this investment in your certification 100%.

-Kelly Gorder, NBHWC

I have the opportunity to work with Melissa in multiple roles. As a trainer and coach for exam preparation we have used and always recommend her training programs. When it is possible, we have her facilitate. For the NBHWC we have had a 100% pass rate over multiple cohorts and dozens of coaches. Maybe as importantly, she provisions people to build their best experience possible. Melissa has crafted tools for the full spectrum of learning and test-taking styles. She is also continually updating based on feedback, so you can count on having the most current and optimized tools.

From a business perspective, Melissa is amazingly easy to work with. She is conscientious about the experience as well as the outcome. Notice a trend? If you can work with her, you absolutely should in whatever capacity!

-Arne-Per Heurberg, NBHWC

The first time I took the exam I failed, I didn't have a guide to study nor did I have experience in this type of test. With Melissa, my experience was different, I was able to design a study plan, focus on specific and strategic areas, intelligently practice tricky questions and develop an ability for this type of test, which is long and timed.

Melissa is professional, clear, organized, sincere. She is a mentor that without a doubt I recommend to achieve the PASS in this certification.

-Daniela Mendoza, NBHWC

Melissa's exam prep course was well organized, thoughtful, and delivered in a supportive and effective way. Her weekly emails with study tips, suggestions, and invitations to engage with the material in a variety of ways were especially helpful for keeping me on track with my preparation. Melissa' practice questions are simply the best around, hands down. I felt well prepared for the exam and actually found the questions easier than expected given all the exam preparation Melissa supported.

-Jennifer Lawson, NBHWC

The combination of practice exams and group study was helpful. Group study allowed for an exchange of ideas and provided rationales for both the correct and incorrect responses. In fact the questions in the group were more difficult than the exam so I felt better prepared on the day of and passed my first try!

-Kimberly C, NBHWC

I leaned on Melissa's prep class and example tests as my primary review for the board exam and I'm glad I did. In hindsight having passed the exam, I feel that the material presented was the most valuable content and representative of what to expect on the exam.

-Joyce Koker, NBHWC

Melissa's study group helped me refine my study plan and go into the exam with confidence. The practice questions were very helpful in understanding the different types of questions that may appear. By using the strategies discussed in the study group, I was able to answer the exam questions more quickly and eliminate incorrect answers. I felt very supported throughout the process!

-Tiffany Chen, NBHWC

I am so glad I made the decision to sign up for this study group. I have spent a lot of time studying, but it makes a difference to have a group to meet and talk with. It was helpful to review the material as a group and work through practice questions. Melissa is very knowledgeable in the material and she allowed plenty of time for discussion and opportunities to ask questions.
