The NIGP-CPP Team cannot assist with information about any available study or preparatory resources. All prep/study questions must be directed to NIGP Customer Care at CustomerCare@nigp.org.
The NIGP Content Team has developed study and preparatory tools to help you prepare for the NIGP-CPP exam. NIGP has prep and study resources to assist candidates required to pass Exam Modules A and B, and the NIGP Content Team is developing prep and study resources for new Exam Modules C and D.
There is a strict firewall between NIGP’s Certification program and NIGP’s Content program that develops preparatory materials. NIGP’s Content team is aware of the exam content (which is publicly available on the NIGP website) but does have access to the NIGP-CPP exam questions. Therefore, all preparatory materials are based on the specific competency statements contained in Module A and Module B or in the competency statements assessed on new Exam Modules C and D.
NIGP offers the following options:
- Fee-based preparatory online study guides are available for each module.
- Fee-based preparatory courses instructor-led available virtually and in-person, on demand) are available for each module.
- A fee-based online self-assessment tool is available that provides personalized insight into your procurement expertise before you test by delivering immediate feedback on every question (instantly knowing if your answer is right or wrong and why) and providing a customized report on strengths and weaknesses that recommends courses for developing the competencies.
- Online NSite communities to facilitate group studying for the NIGP-CPP; organized approximately two months prior to each testing window(available to NIGP members only).
