Preparing for CRC
RMA provides several tools and resources to help applicants prepare for the exam. The CRC Steering Committee recommends 40 to 80 hours of examination study time.
Body of Knowledge
The Body of Knowledge contains the minimum material you should know to successfully pass the examination. It outlines the exam blueprint, including each of the seven topic areas. Each area in the Body of Knowledge highlights key topics, additional skill-enhancing resources, and detailed topic-related content. Your on-the-job experience and knowledge will be necessary to add depth to the Body of Knowledge material.
To give you a preview of the Body of Knowledge, here are the abbreviated versions for the U.S. and Canada.
RMA Courses
RMA offers courses that are beneficial throughout your career or as a refresher to help prepare you for the CRC exam. Although taking courses may help, on-the-job experience and knowledge will be necessary to add depth to the tools offered by RMA. Learn more about RMA's courses or view our event calendar for upcoming courses.

What does the exam cover?
The 120 scored, multiple-choice questions are from topic areas derived from the seven dimensions of the credit risk field as defined by RMA's Certification Steering Committee.
The exam has been designed to assess the knowledge of a commercial credit risk professional with a minimum of three years (five years recommended) of credit risk experience.
The 120 scored examination questions will focus on the following seven topics:
- Evaluate client industry, markets, and competitors.
- Assess management's ability to formulate business and financial strategies and execute them.
- Complete accurate, ongoing, and timely financial assessments of the client and its other credit sponsors.
- Assess strength and quality of client/sponsor cash flow.
- Evaluate collateral values and conduct periodic inspections of collateral.
- Identify repayment sources and appropriately structure and document credit exposures for their intended purpose (loan structure and documentation).
- Be aware of problem loans and the appropriate actions to take
There are seven domains the exam covers. Here is a breakdown by domain of the % of items (questions) per domain to anticipate during the CRC Exam:
1. Evaluate client industry, markets, and competitors | 10-15% |
2. Assess management's ability to formulate business and financial strategy and execute them | 10-15% |
3. Complete accurate, on-going and timely financial assessments of the client and its other credit sponsors | 17-24% |
4. Assess strength and quality of client/sponsor cash flow | 15-23% |
5. Evaluate collateral values and conduct periodic inspections of collateral | 15-23% |
6. Identify repayment sources and appropriately structure and document credit exposures for their intended purpose (Loan Structure and Documentation) | 14-21% |
7. Problem Loan Awareness and Actions | 10-15% |
There is not a set number of items (questions) candidates need to score correctly in order to pass the exam. Each exam window and item bank (set of questions) delivered varies for each testing window, therefore there is not a standard cut score.
Exam Format
The 120 multiple-choice questions are from topic areas derived from the seven dimensions of the credit risk field as defined by RMA’s Certification Steering Committee. An additional 10 pilot items may appear in random order throughout the exam. Pilot items are new items that are being field tested for future exams. Pilot items are NOT used to calculate an examinee’s score.
The exam has been designed to assess the knowledge of a commercial credit risk professional with a minimum of three years (five years recommended) of credit risk experience.
The exam is composed of stand-alone multiple-choice questions of varying length and complexity, but which all offer four options. The entire exam is based on the concepts and experiences related to the commercial credit risk field.
At the test center, before taking the actual exam, you will be offered a five-minute computer tutorial and briefing. This is presented to familiarize you with computer-based exam procedures and the tabs you can use to access cash flow terms, ratios, and the on-screen calculator. Since no additional examination time is allocated to learn the computer, it is recommended that all applicants take the tutorial.
The total seat time in the examination room will be four hours and 50 minutes (290 minutes) for the exam, plus five minutes for the tutorial and five minutes for a survey. You may go to your locker for any water or snacks you bring. Although the clock will keep ticking, additional time has been provided so you can take a break.
Industry Feedback
RMA's CRC is widely considered to be the industry's premier designation for the commercial credit professional. To date, more than 1,000 candidates have passed the CRC exam. Two banks, Capital One and SunTrust, use the CRC as an integral part of their training curriculum for experienced credit professionals.

Maintaining the CRC
The Credit Risk Certification is valid for three years.
To maintain your credential, you must earn a total of 45 continuing-education credits within those three years. The three-year period begins either June 1 or January 1 following the end of your testing window, whichever comes first. For example, if your testing window ended April 2014, your continuing-education period would start June 1, 2014, and end June 30, 2017.
Before the certification period ends, you will need to report your credits and how you obtained them and remit the $100 Recertification fee. Only those credits earned during the recertification cycle will be accepted for the reporting period.
Reporting Guidelines
You must maintain records documenting your continuing-education credits. A copy of an educational event’s registration form and program are adequate documentation. Be sure to retain this documentation for two full years after completing each three-year recertification cycle. You will need this documentation for an audit, so keep it readily accessible: Random audits will be performed.
