Free SHRM-CP Practice Test
Answer 20 multiple-choice questions covering HR knowledge and workplace decision-making. See an explanation after every answer, then review the questions you missed.
Free to complete. No account or payment is required. This is a short, untimed practice set—not a full-length exam or a prediction of your SHRM result.
Independent exam preparation; not an official SHRM exam. SHRM-SCP candidates can use these questions for foundational review, but should also practice strategic-level scenarios.
How to use your result
Choose your answer before opening the explanation. After the final question, review your mistakes and identify whether you missed the HR concept, overlooked a detail, or chose an action that did not fit the situation. Your practice percentage is not SHRM’s scaled score.
Pair this set with the six-week study plan. Preparing for the senior exam? Read the SHRM-SCP scenario questions.
