bottom of the page where you will can link to the Research
Administrators Certification Council examination.
The fee to take the
examination is $340.
Body of Knowledge Review Sessions
The purpose of the RACC Body of Knowledge is to
familiarize you with the outline of information upon which the
certification examination is based. This review will help you
determine in which areas you are weak and may need additional study.
It is not intended as an examination preparation course, nor will it
give you strategies or sample test items to familiarize you with what
to expect when you take the examination.
Instead, we
suggest that you form study groups, read the literature in the links
from the Body of Knowledge, and concentrate on the areas which the
review session uncovered to be your weakest.
RACC reserves the right to cancel a
review session if fewer than 15 register by 3 weeks
ahead of the date of the review session.
Registration cancellations or
transfers received more than 72 hours before the date of the
session will be refunded less a $25 administrative fee;
cancellations or transfers received less than 72 hours
before the session will be refunded less an administration
fee of $75
