Searching for American Mah Jongg instructor certification? If you're already teaching American Mah Jongg and are looking to validate your knowledge and instructional skills, the School of American Mah Jongg's Exam-Only Accreditation pathway allows experienced instructors to demonstrate their competency through examination and a live teaching practicum.
Already teaching American Mah Jongg?
The Exam-Only pathway is designed specifically for experienced instructors who already confidently teach American Mah Jongg according to National Mah Jongg League (NMJL) rules and standards and simply wish to earn accreditation without completing the full instructional program.
This streamlined pathway includes:
Required onboarding meeting
Mahjpedia assessment
Comprehensive final examination
Live teaching practicum evaluation
Personalized feedback
