Course Offerings
CRC Exam Preparation Workshop
The CRC Exam Preparation Workshop provides a unique opportunity to prepare for the CRC exam and practice taking computerized tests similar to the CRC. The online learning format allows you to access material nearly anywhere and anytime Internet access is available.
We have found that many participants would like a longer duration of this course. We are now giving you access to this course for a full 6 months. A facilitator will be available for the first 8 weeks to answer questions and guide you thru the workshop. Additional supports include weekly email and text reminders and resources.
The workshop is offered before each CRC Exam.

Cost: $200.00
Course Syllabus
Continuing education credits are not provided for this workshop.
We recommend that your registration for the CRC exam is confirmed before registering for this workshop. SVRI is not affiliated with CRC and cannot provide you with assistance in applying.
Our courses while still being accessible to individuals with disabilities, frequently include video, audio, and interactive tutorials to avoid flat written content as the basis for the course and engage learners on a different level. Asynchronous written discussions facilitated by qualified professionals provide opportunities for practitioners to share their valuable work experiences with each other. Activities are relevant to practitioners wanting to advance their skills. Course activities are asynchronous, meaning that they can be completed 24/7 as long as they are submitted by assignment due dates established in each course. Participation in discussions is required and it is recommended that participants login at least twice a week to monitor the discussion.
Our staff is able to provide assistance to people new to online courses to ensure a good experience with the technology. If you are new to online learning, please visit our "Is Online Learning For Me?" page to learn more about what to expect.
