Description
Becoming a Certified Materials & Resource Professional (CMRP), the premier national supply chain credential, provides a personal and professional distinction in an increasingly competitive health care supply chain marketplace. This session provides an overview of the CMRP examination, the requirement to earn the CMRP designation.
In this virtual instructor-led training, presenters will discuss exam content areas, the types of questions asked and exam preparation insights. Participants will review concepts and example questions from each of the five exam content areas covering both recall and application questions. Discussion will continue through the study of the 110 example questions which learners are encouraged to complete prior to the workshop. Learners will have the opportunity to contribute to the discussion by asking specific questions throughout the course. Specific reference will be made to the CMRP Examination Review Guide (purchase available and encouraged).
Important Pre-Session Work: Registrants will answer the questions that will be reviewed during the session. Not completing the pre-work assignment will likely cause disappointment with the session.
