ACRP CPI Exam Content Outline
Domains, study priorities, and blueprint use
The official ACRP CPI content outline is the best scope document for preparation. Turn each domain into a checklist and use the current official blueprint for any published weights.
Core Domains
- Scientific concepts and research design
- Ethical and participant safety considerations
- Product development and regulation
- Clinical trial operations
- Study and site management
- Data management and informatics
How to Use the Blueprint
- Download the current official outline before you begin
- Allocate study time according to official weights and your weak areas
- Map every missed practice question to a domain
- Recheck the official outline shortly before the exam for revisions
A Practical Study Matrix
For every domain, track three items: concepts you can explain, questions you can apply correctly, and topics requiring remediation. A domain is not finished merely because it has been read once.
