The CEP Institute Exams present considerable difficulties, even for experienced professionals. Working through challenging questions such as those in our Exam Prep Course is an essential preparation tool for the Exam. For each CEP test level, we provide multiple-choice practice questions written by equity compensation experts, many of whom have written actual CEP exam questions and are CEPs themselves. The questions address the four subject areas the CEP Institute exam covers: Accounting; Taxation; Corporate and Securities Law; and Equity Plan Design, Analysis, and Administration. Students take quizzes online and instantly find out whether they have answered correctly. For each answer, students are given a reference to required CEP Institute study materials and an explanation of the correct answer. From visit to visit, the online Exam Prep courseware remembers which sample quizzes you have passed. Your access to the sample questions lasts until the date of the next CEP exam. The questions, answers, and references are updated for each administration of the exam.
Because the CEP exams are cumulative, you should review the earlier levels as you study for Levels 2 or 3. Because of this, the NCEO's Prep Course automatically gives you access to all information from the earlier levels.
Along with the sample questions, the courseware also includes an equity compensation glossary (both in a pop-up form and as a printable page) featuring a multitude of terms and definitions relevant to the equity compensation field.

Our Exam Prep Course also includes Webinars—PowerPoint presentations broadcast live over the Internet, accompanied by a telephone conference call. The Webinars review sample questions to help prepare you for the actual exam. All students will receive a link to the replay of the live broadcast, which can be viewed an unlimited number of times until the date of the next national exam. The Webinars are managed by Pam Chernoff, CEP, director of equity compensation projects at the NCEO. The total running time for each Webinar is three hours per level (two sessions of 1.5 hours each).
Pam Chernoff is the NCEO's director of equity compensation projects. She is the editor of The Stock Options Book and also conducts equity compensation surveys. She was previously an editor at Pensions & Investments newspaper and has a master's degree in journalism from Northwestern University.
The third component of our Exam Prep Course is a laminated, three-hole-punched Quick Reference Guide, which can be easily inserted into your binder for use during the open-book exam. The Reference Guide consists of four double-sided letter-sized pages and is packed with common definitions, formulas and the like, serving as a fast and easy reference both during study and during the actual CEP Institute exam.
Over 1,500 people have used our CEPI exam test preparation since 2003. Our students agree that our exam preparation is an essential supplement to readings and lectures:
"The NCEO's CEP Institute test prep was the only study guide that let me view CEP-simulated questions at my own pace; I could go back at leisure to go over any question in each of the four subject categories."
- Anna Felix, Stock Administrator, PeopleSoft
