Am I ready for the PRK Exam

Am I ready for the PRK^TM Exam?

The PRK^TM Exam tests your knowledge of PR fundamentals, critical thinking and writing skills, so you will need to make your own determination about the extent to which you have developed this knowledge and your potential to achieve a passing grade or higher. 

Although the CPRS welcomes all current and new member participants who wish to write the Public Relations Knowledge (PRK)^TM exam, the exam has been prepared for those who have completed some level of public relations or communications education. The PRK^TM is designed to specifically test a participant’s knowledge in the field of public relations and communications. Prior to taking this exam, formal studies in public relations or communications are strongly recommended. Alternatively, a participant may have acquired direct work experience and undertaken self-directed studies in the area.

If you would like to discuss your personal situation, please feel free to contact us at certification@cprs.ca.
