The Comprehensive Exam is the very last step to earning the CCIM designation. Candidate members who have completed all educational, portfolio, and elective credit requirements are eligible to take the Comprehensive Exam.

Held twice a year in the U.S. and as-needed internationally, the Comprehensive Exam tests members’ knowledge of CI 101-104 concepts. Students also have the option to attend the Course Concepts Review (CCR) immediately prior to the exam. This two-day immersive review is especially helpful for individuals who completed the courses over a period of several years.
