Do I need to purchase both study materials for the CTP Exam?

It depends on your learning preference, but you do not need to purchase both study materials.  Study materials are not included with the Exam fee.  Study materials may be purchased at the same time when you submit your Exam application online.  Shipping and sales tax may be calculated depending on your location.

For CTP Exam windows 2023A-2025B, the Essentials of Treasury Management, 7th Edition is the Body of Knowledge for the Exam. 

  • If you prefer to study with a printed text book, then you should purchase the Essentials of Treasury Management, 7th Edition
  • If you prefer to study in an interactive format, then you should purchase the CTP Exam Prep Platform.  The CTP Exam Prep Platform provides an online program which allows users to assess their knowledge of the exam content areas.

Exam Prep Platform users also have the ability to track their performance and are provided with feedback when answering questions incorrectly. Access to the online software is for one year, and may be extended as long as you have re-registered for a future CTP Exam window.
