Respiratory Review Workshops, Inc., also referred to as The Persing Review, believes that the best way to prepare for the NBRC credentialing exams is by practicing exam questions and discussing the material related to each question. This workshop is very detailed and reviews material from all content areas of the NBRC CRT and RRT Exam Content Matrices by reviewing 180 NBRC-like questions administered in 10 exams that are grouped in sections according to the NBRC CRT and RRT Exam Content Matrices assuring that all areas of the exams will be reviewed.  Four practice clinical simulations will also be completed and reviewed in detail.

The Persing Review is a comprehensive 2-day workshop to help review individuals for both the Entry-Level Certification (CRT) Exam and the Advanced Practitioner Written Registry and Clinical Simulation Exams (RRT).

Data from the Respiratory Care Programs who use this workshop indicate that over 90% of their students pass the CRT Exam on the first attempt and over 80% pass the RRT exams!

Most workshops are conducted by Gary Persing, BS, RRT, Program Director in the Respiratory Care Program at Tulsa Community College in Tulsa, OK. Gary has taught in the program since 1981.  To ensure his knowledge of the exam content Gary routinely takes the NBRC CRT and RRT exams and all the practice exams offered by the NBRC. Gary has conducted review workshops since 1990 with almost 50,000 students around the country using his review textbooks and attending his workshops to help in the preparation for these important exams. His review textbook, Respiratory Care Exam Review, 3rd edition, published by Elsevier Publishing Company, is a combination CRT/RRT exam review that offers 17 chapters of review material for both exams including two practice CRT exams, two practice RRT exams and eleven practice clinical simulations. Explanations for all the correct answers are included. This textbook is included in the workshop fee and is updated to the current 2009 exam content matrix for both exams.
