Where do I take the SHRM Certification exam?

The SHRM-CP and SHRM-SCP exams are administered in-person at Prometric testing centers—a global testing organization with locations around the world.

First: Apply for the Exam

Before scheduling your test, you must first apply directly through SHRM.

Once your application is approved, SHRM will email you an Authorization-To-Test (ATT) letter. This letter includes a confirmation number that you’ll need to schedule your exam.
