Additional Requirements for Obtaining the NKE Waiver with the CPHR Academic Program Accreditation Option
  • Nine courses completed within the CPHR Academic Program entitle you to the waiver.
  • Some of the CPHR Academic Program courses can be equivalent courses taken previously from another accredited program (through Prior Learning Assessment and Recognition). This would also entitle you to the NKE waiver.
  • Courses that are not from an accredited program, but which are credited through Prior Learning Assessment and Recognition are not valid for the NKE waiver. However, they are valid for completing the coursework required to write the NKE.
  • Please read and ensure that you can follow these Detailed Steps for obtaining the NKE waiver.
  • Please read about the Advantages and Benefits of Student Membership.
