Description: The CPRP Preparation Course is a review and discussion of the national Certified Park and Recreation Professional Certification test.

Certification Examination Details: The national CPRP examination is designed to assess the core knowledge of job-related tasks common to entry-level professionals in the field of parks and recreation. The test is based on the results of a job analysis, and the content outline is a reflection of the role of hundreds of recreation and park professionals. Each year’s examination exactly matches the content outline, and all test questions have been unanimously approved by a committee of subject matter experts.

Exam Content
1. Sample questions to familiarize you with the exam structure and computerized testing (not scored)
2. 150 test questions, including 125 upon which your score will be based, and 25 randomly inserted questions that will not be scored, but are being validated for possible future exam use
3. Content areas include finance (11%), human resources(23%), programming (33%) and operations(33%)

Passing Score for the Exam
Passing scores are re-evaluated annually and are based on how difficult that year’s test is determined to be by subject matter experts. This means that the number of correct answers needed to pass may vary slightly from year to year; the number of correct answers to pass the test over recent years has generally been within a few points of 85 (out of 125 questions). Test results are provided to you on-site. You will receive a separate score per content area, and a total score; you will not be provided individual question results.
