Why SCR

About the GARP SCR Certificate

The Sustainability and Climate Risk (SCR) Certificate from GARP is a globally recognised credential for professionals who want to lead on climate and sustainability risk. As ESG regulation and climate disclosure expand, hiring managers look for people who can connect climate science, policy, and financial risk.

Developed with global risk and climate experts, the SCR Course covers sustainability, climate risk, nature risk, and transition planning. It is open to all backgrounds — no prior finance or risk experience required. Pair the official GARP curriculum with RBei’s exam-oriented coaching, notes, and lectures to prepare with clarity.

Why Candidates Choose SCR

Benefits of SCR Certification

Fees & Logistics

Retakes, Scheduling & Payment

Key GARP logistics from the live SCR page — always confirm on garp.org before you pay or schedule.

Retakes

If you don’t pass, don’t schedule, or don’t sit after registering, you can usually register once at USD 350 for either of the next two windows. Miss those windows and full fees apply again. Updated eBook is free if the curriculum changes before your retake.

Scheduling

After GARP registration, schedule an in-person CBT seat at Pearson VUE for your registered window. Schedule at least 48 hours before your preferred start time. Fail to schedule by the deadline and you must re-register and pay again.

Payment

Payment must reach GARP by 11:59 pm EST on the registration closing date. Accepted: Credit Card (Visa/MC/Amex/Discover), Alipay (ePay), Wire (+USD 50), ACH (+USD 50). Reference your GARP ID and invoice on wire/ACH.

Registration vs scheduling

Registration = enrol + pay for a window. Scheduling = pick Pearson VUE site, date, and time. Without scheduling you won’t know where to appear.

SCR Exam Policies

What to Expect — Pre-Exam & Exam Day

Summarised from GARP SCR policies published on the live course page. Official rules always win if anything changes.

Pre-Exam Policies

Complete the online registration form and pay the fee. If you register and then decide not to schedule/sit, you forfeit the fee unless you request a refund within 48 hours. Candidates must agree to the Candidate Responsibility Statement and GARP Code of Conduct.
You have 48 hours after submitting exam registration payment to request a refund. Requests must be emailed to GARP (exam-related support inbox on garp.org). Deadlines are 11:59 pm Eastern Time.
SCR candidates may defer once to the next exam window. Deferral + fee must be submitted by April 1 (April window) or October 1 (October window). Administrative fee historically USD 150. Deferring into the next exam year includes the new SCR eBook when available.
Schedule CBT at Pearson VUE ≥48 hours ahead; seats are first-come, first-served. Reschedule/change site on Pearson VUE until 48 hours before start. Missing schedule or appointment forfeits the exam fee. Eligible retake: USD 350 once across the next two administrations; digital curriculum updates provided if content changes.
Late arrival after the Confirmation of Appointment start time = no entry, no refund/deferral, fee forfeited. ID must be original, valid, non-expired, government-issued, with photo and signature (e.g. passport, national ID, driver’s licence). Name must exactly match GARP registration. Digital IDs are not accepted. No exceptions — wrong/missing ID means you cannot sit and you forfeit the fee.

Exam Day Policies

No personal items in the exam room (phones, watches, bags, coats, food/drink, notes, large hair accessories/jewelry, etc.). Store items in a locker or vehicle; devices off. Refusal = cannot sit, fee lost. No candidate communication once inside. Disruptive or fraudulent behaviour can end the session and affect future eligibility.
For in-person CBT, GARP provides an on-screen digital calculator. An erasable note board and pen are provided — no personal scratch paper or unauthorised materials.
Leave only with proctor approval. Raise your hand for restroom breaks — no extra time. Finish early → raise hand, exit promptly, no return.
Any activity that compromises exam integrity before, during, or after the session is a violation. Candidates may be dismissed; proctors file a report for GARP review.
Policies summarised from content previously published on rbeiset.com/scr-course / GARP SCR docs. Verify live rules on garp.org/scr before exam day.
