Wow! I cannot say enough
about how Yahoo Groups (previously know as eGroups) helped me when I was going through the process of
certifying. (Yahoo Groups is an example of a Listserv. Yahoo Groups is a free
e-mail group service that allows you to easily create and join e-mail groups. E-mail groups offer a convenient way to connect with others who share the same
interests and ideas.) These Yahoo Groups are made up of teachers who have already
completed the certification process or who are in the process of completing
National Boards. (The National Board Yahoo Groups are just a small portion of
the e-mail groups available at Yahoo Groups.) Below you will find the links to
the specific Yahoo Groups sites where you can join the National Board Yahoo
Group of your
choice. Just click on the Yahoo Group you are interested in joining.
(Note: Unless you are interested in receiving a TON of e-mail messages,
especially in Early and Middle Childhood Yahoo Groups, you might want to select the
"digest" option. This sends the daily e-mail messages as just
one e-mail, up to 25 messages, instead of separately.)

These are just some of the
groups that are out there on the Internet. I am also aware that Yahoo
Clubs has at least one e-mail group for the NBPTS. If you would know of
another eGroup for National Board Certification, please let me know and I will
add it to the list.
