A foundational belief in developing this examination is that technicians in the maintenance and reliability industry learn critical knowledge, skills and abilities from a variety of sources, both on the job and from outside training; therefore, no specific work experience or educational requirements are required for the certification. Nevertheless, there are a number of resources that can aid in preparing for the CMRT exam, such as the Body of Knowledge, practice questions and recommended readings.
The Body of Knowledge
There are four domains in the maintenance and reliability Body of Knowledge for technicians: Maintenance Practices, Preventive and Predictive Maintenance, Troubleshooting and Analysis and Corrective Maintenance. The critical knowledge, skills and abilities under each of these domains are outlined in the CMRT Candidate Guide for Certification and Recertification.
Practice Questions
The CMRT Candidate Guide for Certification and Recertification contains several practice questions that are designed to familiarize applicants with CMRT exam content.
