Castleport Test Prep: Serious preparation for the exams that decide careers.

One naming note before the table, because it trips people up: LMSW and LCSW are commonly used license titles, while ASWB names the exam categories Masters and Clinical. Your state or provincial board decides which exam category you are approved to take and what license it issues afterward. Match the table to the exam category on your authorization, not just to the letters in a job posting. ASWB explains the division between the jurisdiction and the exam category in its current Examination Guidebook.

Looking for progressive or critical-care certification? Start with the Critical Care Nursing certification hub before opening the PCCN exam guide.

New to EKG certification? Start with the EKG technician certification guide before opening the CET exam-prep hub.

New to health information certification? Start with the health information credential guide before opening the CEHRS exam-prep hub.

Looking for behavior-analysis certification? Start with the BACB credential guide before opening the RBT exam-prep hub.

Preparing for emergency nursing certification? Open the CEN study-plan guide for the July 2026 outline, current passing score and free planner.

Exam structures verified against the current NHA CCMA test plan, ASWB's current exam page, and the August 2026 ASWB Examination Guidebook. The date above changes only when we actually recheck — not on every deploy.

The right prep path isn't the same for every candidate. It depends on the exam category on your authorization, the blueprint active on your test date, and your jurisdiction's rules — and the official handbook and your board set those requirements, not us. So start by opening your exam's hub, then take the free diagnostic to see where you actually stand before you spend anything.

Exam not listed? Then we don't cover it yet — and you shouldn't substitute a similar exam's material for yours. Go straight to your exam owner's current handbook or official exam page. Want us to build your exam next? Tell us which one.

Every consequential claim gets a named source, a locator, and a verification date before it is presented as verified — and errors are corrected publicly, with dates.

1. 01

   Start from the governing record

   The exam owner's published test plan and candidate handbook — not a competitor's table of contents, and not last year's PDF.

2. 02

   Ledger every claim

   If a source can't be named, the claim is labeled unverified or cut.

3. 03

   Write original items

   Every question is written to the published blueprint. None are recalled, leaked, or “real” exam questions.

4. 04

   Review, version, correct

   When a source changes, the page gets a new version stamp — and old claims don't linger silently.

We also label our work honestly. Official facts, our calculations, and our editorial calls are marked as what they are. One real example: NHA's test plan lists 84 of 150 scored CCMA items under Clinical Patient Care — that's the official fact. 84 ÷ 150 = 56% — that's our math, shown so you can check it. “Study it first unless your baseline is already strong” — that's our editorial call, and it's labeled that way. Check the item counts in NHA's current CCMA test plan.

Here's what one item looks like when you open the cover: the order-of-draw sample above is tied to CLSI's current standard, with the answer, rationale, locator, and status visible before you ever start a diagnostic. That's not a marketing sample. It's the standard every item in our banks is held to.

Castleport Test Prep is independent. It is not an exam owner, testing vendor, certifying body, or licensing board, and it is not affiliated with or endorsed by NHA, ASWB, NCCT, or any other exam organization. Registration, fees, eligibility, scoring, and licensing are controlled by the official organizations — and Castleport links to them directly for those questions.

That means: for registering, fees and test dates, eligibility, accommodations, score reports, retake rules, and license issuance, your answer lives with your exam owner and your board, and we'll always send you there first. We will never put a product between you and an official fact.

And how we make money is simple. When our paid Exam Systems launch, we'll sell them — our own products, plainly labeled as ours. No ads. No affiliate links. No sponsored placements. Until those systems are ready, those systems are not for sale.

Castleport Test Prep is an independent publisher of exam preparation materials and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or approved by AAMA, AMT, ASWB, NCCT, NHA, AANPCB/NPCB, any exam owner, certifying body, testing vendor, or licensing board. Exam, certification, credential, and provider names are used descriptively to identify the exams and services discussed. Castleport claims no ownership in those names or marks.

Castleport fits candidates who want to confirm their exact exam and active version, trace official claims to their sources, and measure their gaps free before choosing study materials. It is the wrong stop for registration and licensing decisions, recalled exam questions, pass guarantees, or exams it doesn't yet cover.
