About this exam
The RESNA Assistive Technology Professional (ATP) Certification Examination assesses whether candidates can apply professional knowledge in assistive technology service delivery. It is relevant to occupational therapists and other rehabilitation practitioners, including physical therapists, speech-language pathologists, educators, and assistive technology specialists. The certification is a professional credential, not a state license or an entrance exam for a training program. Candidates should review RESNA’s current eligibility requirements, which include qualifying education and relevant work experience, before applying.
ATP exam content centers on identifying a person’s needs and goals, matching features to those needs, and supporting effective assistive technology use. Review assessment and feature matching, evaluation and device trials, implementation, follow-up, ethics and informed consent, and funding documentation. The exam uses a computer-based format; consult the current RESNA Candidate Handbook for the official question structure, timing, and content outline. Preparation is strongest when you connect technical concepts to person-centered cases and the full service-delivery process.
How to prepare for the RESNA ATP certification exam
- Use the current RESNA Candidate Handbook and exam content outline to organize a checklist of domains; confirm eligibility and exam procedures directly with RESNA.
- Review case-based decisions across assessment, goals, feature matching, trials, implementation, follow-up, ethics, and payer documentation, explaining why each option fits the person’s needs.
- Practice answering questions under timed conditions, then analyze missed items by topic and revisit the underlying principles rather than memorizing isolated answers.
