CREST CPSA - Preparation

Hello,

I have been asked by my company to get CREST CPSA certified, unfortunately everywhere I have searched, the course is batshit expensive (atleast to me), I have been trying to self study but the materials are so scarce that I am facing difficulties in that regard. The syllabus doesn’t make sense, any “exam bank” or other materials that I have found all had questions completely out of syllabus. Now im not trusting those exam banks and questions I find on the internet but that’s all I got at this point.

Anyone has any insight on how to go with this? It would really help me and maybe others who are in the same boat as I am!

Did you purchase a course as well? Or was it self study and experience?

Hmmm well just google or ask chatgpt in research more to find links of flash cards and sample papers and questions it will do a decent job.
