APICS CLTD : Certified in Logistics, Transportation and Distribution

The CLTD exam leads to the Certified in Logistics, Transportation and Distribution (CLTD) certification, a Professional-level credential from APICS. It validates the skills measured by the APICS Certified in Logistics, Transportation and Distribution syllabus and is a recognized step for IT professionals building their careers, and it sits alongside related credentials such as CPIM, CSCP, SCOR-P, CTSC.

The APICS Certified in Logistics, Transportation and Distribution exam includes 150 questions and gives you 210 minutes to complete them. That works out to a fairly tight pace, so reading each question carefully but decisively matters more than perfectionism. If a question stalls you, flag it and move on; banking the easier points first keeps time pressure from snowballing near the end. Before test day, run at least one full timed session with the Prep4away practice test so the rhythm feels familiar rather than rushed.

You need 300 (scale: 200–350) to pass the CLTD exam, and the official registration fee is $1,055 (ASCM Member) / $1,470 (Non-Member) USD. Keep in mind that a failed attempt means paying the full fee again to retake the exam, so it pays to be honest with yourself before booking a seat. A practical benchmark: work through the 150 practice questions at Prep4away until you can score comfortably above the passing line in timed mode, then schedule your exam.

No formal prerequisites; recommended 2–3 years of logistics experience or foundational supply chain knowledge Because APICS may adjust its policies over time, we recommend confirming the latest requirements on the official exam page (official exam page) before you register.
