The 2023 Fall NKE is Nov. 2, 2023. An announcement will be made when registration opens.

As of Jan. 1, 2022, Associate Members wishing to pursue the CPHR designation and write the NKE must be NKE Ready. Being NKE Ready means Associate Members have met the coursework requirement and received approval from CPHR Saskatchewan prior to registering for the NKE.

For those requesting transcripts, if the name on your transcripts or reports is different than your current name, please update the “maiden name" in your member profile.

NKE Prep Courses
NKE prep courses are available to writers with the theoretical knowledge and test-taking strategies needed to effectively write the NKE. These are not mandatory.

NKE Waiver
Graduates of an accredited post-secondary program may be eligible to apply for an NKE Waiver. Click here to see a list of CPHR Saskatchewan Accredited Post-secondary Institutions. 

There is a minimum requirement of 10 CPD hours annually and during any three-year rolling period, a minimum of 60 CPD hours, including a three-hour ethics course.

Annual 2023 CPD (Jan. 1 - Dec. 31, 2023) must be entered by Jan. 15, 2024 to avoid a $50 late fee.
