Study Guide for the Therapeutic Recreation Specialist Certification Examination 6th Edition - eBook

The purpose of this study guide is to assist candidates in preparing for the NCTRC national examination for Certified Therapeutic Recreation Specialists. We are excited to tell you that this sixth edition of the Study Guide for the Therapeutic Recreation Specialist Certification Examination has changed significantly from previous editions. This is largely due to two reasons: (a) the National Council for Therapeutic Recreation Certification (NCTRC) has recently updated the Job Analysis, which helps structure the content of the test, and (b) the computerized test has a newer format of a 120-item test. Therefore, we have restructured the Study Guide to align more closely with the most recent NCTRC exam content and format. In addition, we’ve added hundreds of new items formed into warm-up items and four practice tests! While the warm-up items do not, the practice tests reflect the percentages you'll see on the actual exam. In preparing this Study Guide, we had a two fold mission: (a)to provide information that helps candidates reduce test anxiety and maximize test performance and (b) to provide numerous sample questions, similar to those actually found on the exam, that will allow candidates to practice and self-assess their own readiness for the test. Please read the first four chapters carefully and read the material available on NCTRC.org to get the best available and up-to-date information. This Study Guide will help you to identify areas where you need further study to help you pass your NCTRC certification examination!
