CPRP Exam exam requirements & cost
Straight from the certifying body — separate from what we charge for the study portal.
The CPRP exam has 150 questions, of which 125 are scored and 25 are unscored pretest questions embedded in the exam (NRPA CPRP exam page); the candidate handbook lists four-option multiple choice and a 180-minute time limit. The weighted content areas in the candidate handbook are Communication 25 percent, Finance 10 percent, Human Resources 10 percent, Operations 30 percent and Programming 25 percent. Applicants have one year from the time of registration to take the exam, and results are provided on site at the end of the exam (NRPA CPRP exam page). NRPA does not publish the CPRP passing score: an expert committee sets it and results are reported by content area. The portal mock shows 70 percent only as a self-check. NRPA lists $275 for members and $320 for non-members for the application and exam on its application form (2024); older forms show lower amounts, so confirm the current fee with NRPA. The content outline spreads questions across 5 areas; the largest are Operations (30.0%); Communication (25.0%); Programming (25.0%). The full list of areas and weights is on the portal exam page. Education and experience pathways, from a bachelor's degree from a COAPRT-accredited program to a high school diploma plus six years of full-time experience (NRPA, effective January 1, 2023).
