LPQualified LPQ Exam

In order to earn the LPQualified (LPQ) credential, an applicant must meet required eligibility standards and pass the LPQ exam. The 100 multiple choice question exam covers the core business domains of the retail loss prevention / asset protection field.

The LPF does not publish the passing score to encourage study and to elevate the LPQ body of knowledge. Once the exam is passed, the LPQ certification is permanent and does not require recertification or continuing education as does the LPC certification.

The best study tool available for the exam is the on-line, LPQ prep-course, whose outline follows the exam’s subject matter. The course is not required, but if the exam is failed and a re-test is desired, the prep-course must be purchased.

The two hour exam is held in an administered, monitored environment on a computer. Our exam administer and partner, CIW|PearsonVUE, services over 5000 exam locations worldwide, including almost 1400 centers in the United States. View LPF exam locations.

A successfully scheduled exam requires careful logistics. Not only does the applicant need to apply, qualify eligibility requirements with the LPF, but they must also create an account, select an exam location, apply, and pay our exam partner. Follow our step-by-step exam guide to successfully sign-up for and take the LPQ exam.
