I had to take the NYC process server exam in order to able to serve process in the state of NY. After taking and passing the exam, I'm definitely glad to spent the money for the practice exams, they were invaluable. Despite reviewing the materials available through the Department of Consumer and Worker Protection, it would not have been enough to get through the exam. The test preparation questions were very similar to what the actual test was and allowed me to pass the exam with no problem. It was definitely worth the money. If you are on the fence if you should spend the money or not, you should spend the money.

I, just like you was nervous about taking the DCA - Process Server Renewal. I've been a licensed server for over 10 years, before they instituted an exam and bond. I made my appt and was nervous about the day I selected, in fact I was scared, this is my job, the unforeseen future of losing my income made me sick. I ordered the training institute study material , that is the only study material I focused on, I read it cover to cover and took the practice exams. The author, “Paula“ was available and we spoke on the phone numerous times, she truly cares and answered my questions every time. I took the test today and received an 80. The stress and pressure is over for the next 2 years, life is back to normal now thanks to the Training Institute and Paula. Don't take this DCA exam without this study material!!

Extremely helpful in preparing and building confidence for the exam. The practice exams also help in deciphering the wording given in the DCA exam.

TESTIMONIALS

  • Larry K. says:

    None of us are looking to score a perfect 100 percent on the test. However, we can all agree knowledge is power. As the laws change regularly, it is up to us to keep up with the new rules and avoid fines and penalties. Paula’s test prep does more than just get you ready to pass the test. It keeps you updated on what’s going on in this industry. I would highly recommend taking this class (as I do each licensing year) to ensure passing the exam on the first time and staying in the loop when the law and other changes are made. Let’s face it, if you can pass Paula’s practice exams, the DCWP test will be a walk in the park.

  • Michael F. says:

    I passed [the 2024 exam] because working with you put me into the mind-set and provided me the clear information to deal with it. Thanks very much.

  • Wendys F. says:

    Thank you so much for the 2024 Class. I passed the test on my first try; it was easy to pass because it had the topics that you covered in our Zoom class and all of the questions I studied from your book. Thanks again as I will never miss these classes and materials for my licensing year.

  • Michael C. says:

    "The benefit I received from the quizzes and materials I obtained from The Training Institute, LLC was immeasurable. The practice quizzes taught me to carefully read and study the wording of the sample situations and mirrored actual test questions. Your practice exams helped me learn to give the best answer to the situation presented rather than to give just an answer. All in all, your practice exams and materials helped me pay closer attention to the actual test questions and made all the difference to me."

  • Steve S. says:

    "THE ONLY WAY TO PASS THE EXAM." The TRAINING INSTITUTE is by far the only way to study and PASS the exam. The most comprehensive and easiest way to study for the process server’s exam is by taking this brilliant course. It is inclusive and gives you the complete understanding that you need in order to prepare for and successfully pass the exam. Honestly, the comprehensiveness of this course enables You to do a deep dive into the understanding of the “process”. Ms. Parrino is clearly the preeminent authority on the successful passing of the exam. I received my license today and with much gratitude for her assistance. The exam has “tricky” questions which can be explained by this amazing course Thanks again Ms. Parrino.

  • Joe M. says:

    "I was completely frustrated with the NY DCA process server exam and Paula Parrino and The Training Institute were a Godsend. She was unbelievably helpful with references and laws … Hands down if you need help preparing for NY DCA exam, she is the top choice in the field. Thanks!"

  • Matthew B. says:

    "I have been taking these exams since 2011 and it is obvious the DCA has made the questions more difficult. I would not want to go into this exam without your course. You hit on every question throughout the practice quizzes. The part 2 review notes were very helpful."

  • Wendys F. says:

    "Paula, I just want to take a moment to thank for your time and effort during the classes to help us to pass the exam. It was very useful and thanks to that I passed!"

  • Claude B. says:

    Paula’s help was immensely effective. The assistance and materials helped me prepare for the test and made me feel comfortable and confident.

  • Anthony M. says:

    "The practice tests and training materials were very helpful to me. The practice questions were very close to the actual NYC DCA licensing exam, and the review allowed me to focus on the materials I really needed to know. I have been serving papers for a very long time, however test taking strategies are a challenge to me. I learned how the questions and answers on the exam could be tricky and what I needed to look at in order to answer the questions correctly and pass the exam."

  • Robert M. says:

    "The preparation quizzes and practice exam review that I completed through The Training Institute, LLC with Paula Parrino, Esq. for the DCA Process Server exam was very informative and uplifting. The knowledge I gained from the review and quizzes was invaluable and boosted my confidence when taking the actual exam."

  • Larry K. says:

    "The practice quizzes and information packet provided by The Training Institute, LLC was excellent. My experience was very positive, as I appreciate the confidence that I gained by taking the exams and reviewing the materials. The resources organized and highlighted key points needed to successfully pass the exam without the overly burdensome task of reading through a large packet. The resources allowed me to learn how to take the test strategically and apply what I learned for a successful outcome."
