CPH Content Outline

CPH Content Outline

As noted on our Job Task Analysis page, the NBPHE conducts a Job Task Analysis (JTA) every five to seven years to update the CPH examination. As a result of our most recent JTA conducted in 2022, the CPH exam’s content outline was updated on August 1, 2024.

See the Content Outline for detailed information on what each area addresses on the exam. While the new passing score is being determined, CPH exam results and score reports will not be available during August.
