APICS 2008 CIRM Exam Dates


First Four CIRM Exams: Throughout the months of January, March, and May 2008

  • Enterprise Concepts and Fundamentals (ECF)

  • Identifying and Creating Demand (ICD)

  • Designing Products and Processes (DPP)

  • Delivering Products and Services (DPS)

Fifth and Final CIRM Exam:

  • Integrated Enterprise Management (IEM) Exam: March 29-April 6.

The remaining IEM exam administration is scheduled for March 29-April 6, 2008. After the March 29-April 6 administration window in 2008, the IEM exam will no longer be available.


Please note that APICS discontinued the eligibility requirements for the IEM exam. Candidates are no longer required to pass the first four CIRM exams before being allowed to take the IEM exam. Although candidates are strongly encouraged to take the first four CIRM exams before the IEM exam, APICS recognizes that increased flexibility is desired by in-process candidates because of the limited administration windows.


Registration Fees
The 2008 CIRM exam registration fees for North America are as follows.
APICS Members: $160.00 per exam
Nonmembers: $195.00 per exam
