Exam Results
Results are released approximately eight weeks after each exam session as this includes the time needed to receive all exam packages, verify that all exam documents have been returned, and process and score the exams. The Exam providers then review the results for non-functioning items as necessary, and finally the results are returned to the CCHRA. The CCHRA will then forward results to each provincial association so that they can notify writers in their provinces of their results.
HRIA will upload exam results approximately eight weeks after each exam session. The exam results and the breakdown of the final grade will be available to each writer through their Member Profile. HRIA will notify exam writers via email when their grades are available online.
