For the CRPO Registration Examination
The exam is a simulation. So is the practice.
The CRPO registration examination puts you inside unfolding clinical situations and asks what you need to know and what you would do. Every option carries a hidden weight from plus three to minus three, every click is permanent, and Information Gathering and Decision Making are scored as two separate totals you must both pass. Practising on multiple choice questions trains the wrong instinct.

What makes this different
The real mechanic, not an approximation
Latent image sections. Click an option and the client's reaction appears beneath it, and the choice locks. You cannot undo, and you cannot revisit a section you skipped. The pressure that changes how you think on exam day is built in.
Scored the way CRPO scores
Options are weighted from plus three to minus three against the competency profile. Information Gathering and Decision Making are reported as separate raw totals with separate benchmarks, because on the real exam you must clear both.
Every option explained
After a simulation you see the full key: what each option was worth, which competencies it mapped to, and why it carries the weight it does. Including the options you did not take, which is where most of the learning is.
Built to the blueprint
CRPO publishes the proportion of each exam form given to each content area. The simulation set is weighted to match it, so your practice is distributed the way the exam is.
Gathering what you need before you act. Risk assessment, cultural and contextual factors, and knowing when to consult.
Orienting the client to your practice, informed consent as a process, and the safe and effective use of self.
The heaviest area on the exam. Core conditions, boundaries, intense affect, rupture and repair, and structuring the work.
Formulation, goals set with the client rather than for them, and recognising when the direction of treatment is wrong.
Preparing a client for an ending, effective referral, and what to do when the ending is not the one you planned.
Confidentiality, consent, mandatory reporting, records, conflicts of interest and business practice.
Bringing the right case at the right time, and what supervision can and cannot be used for.
Sit a full mock exam
Ten simulations in three hours, one of them unscored, exactly as on the day. No weights shown while you work. At the end you get separate Information Gathering and Decision Making totals, a breakdown by content area, and the full key to every option on every section.
