APICS CLTD PDF

Updated on 23 September 2026. What’s new: CLTD now follows ASCM's exam content manual version 3.0, the basis of the 2026 CLTD Learning System, in place of the 2024 version named before.

Everything in the CLTD exam comes down to one number: 300 out of 350. To reach it you answer 150 multiple-choice questions in 210 minutes, for an exam fee of USD $1,100, across the nine modules ASCM sets out in its CLTD content outline. This guide reads those nine modules one by one, says plainly who the credential suits, and turns the outline into a study plan you can hold yourself to.

One thing you will not find here is a success statistic. ProcessExam has never run a controlled study of CLTD pass rates, so this article quotes none, and it gives no salary figure that cannot be traced to a published survey. What it does give you is the exam as ASCM publishes it today, the content outline read section by section, and preparation advice that follows from how the paper is actually built.

Here are the numbers to plan around.
