Human Resources Cheat Sheets FAQ
Which Human Resources exams have free cheat sheets?
8 Human Resources exams have free cheat sheets on OpenExamPrep, including SHRM-CP, PHR, HRPA CHRP Knowledge Exam (Ontario), FPC Fundamental Payroll Certification, APHR and SHRM-SCP. Search this page to find yours.
What is on a cheat sheet?
Each sheet covers one exam: domain weights, quick facts, key terms grouped by topic, decision trees, side-by-side contrasts, mnemonics, common traps and a last-minute checklist, with links to its sources.
How are cheat sheets different from study guides and flashcards?
Study guides teach the material in full, flashcards build recall, and cheat sheets compress the highest-yield rules into one quick-reference page. Use the sheet once you understand a topic, then use practice questions to check you can apply it.
Can I use these cheat sheets during the exam?
No. They are study aids for before the exam, not exam-day reference materials. Use them for final review, after practice sessions, and to refresh formulas, rules, acronyms and common traps.
Are the cheat sheets free?
Yes. Every cheat sheet is free with no sign-up, and you can print it or save it as a PDF.
