The handbook Excelsior sends you (Chapter 4 I believe has all the requirements) and I used RobsCPNE.com. There are a few other study/skills helps out there also that many use.
Thanks for the feedback Nalon, I have heard nothing but good about RobsCPNE. I think I will go with it.
Some people complain that it is outdated and that the videos are old, but he does update all his stuff with each new guide that comes out. I do agree the video quality is poor, but it is good enough to see what you need to do, and I found his techniques, hints and mnemonics spot on and is why I passed the CPNE.
edit: I just went to his website, have not been there in a while, looks like he has updated the site and has changed his program a bit, looks like a better setup and he also is now holding monthly workshops.
It looks like you can get some materials for no cost. What did you sign up for? Did you do the monthly plan?
