The Medical Review Officer Certification Council (MROCC) continues its highly-successful credentialing program for Medical Review Officer Assistants (MRO-A). This three-year certification - awarded upon successful completion and passing of the MROCC MRO-A online examination -- acknowledges competency in those practical skills the MRO Assistant applies in fulfilling his or her professional responsibilities within the workplace drug testing arena.

The 40-question online certification examination - offered to individuals who have completed appropriate MRO Assistant Training and have submitted application to MROCC - consists of multiple choice items, distributed by content area according to the established MROA Competencies, and intermingles recall (recognition), simple interpretation (analysis), and problem solving (evaluation) type questions.
