From Hands-On Training to Written Certification: Master Your Handle With Care® Exam
You’ve learned the techniques. Now, prove you’ve mastered the principles. Our HWC certification test simulator is the ultimate tool for translating your physical skills into the critical judgment, communication, and safety knowledge required to pass your exam with confidence.
The Critical Link Between Action and Understanding
Handle With Care® training gives you the physical skills to safely manage a crisis.
But the certification exam tests something more: your understanding of the principles behind every action.
It tests your judgment under pressure, your communication skills, and your unwavering commitment to safety and ethics.
This Handle With Care exam practice tool was built to bridge that gap.

Your Handle With Care® Exam Questions
Your hands-on training teaches you how to perform techniques safely. This tool teaches you why and when, preparing you for the written exam that tests your understanding of the principles, safety checks, and ethical decision-making behind those techniques—a focus shared by other critical systems like the MAB® Exam and The Mandt System®.
Our questions cover the entire HWC curriculum, with a focus on areas critical for the written exam: the Escalation Cycle, verbal de-escalation, personal safety, teamwork and communication, the Primary Restraint Technique® (PRT), restraint safety, monitoring, post-crisis debriefing, and all related ethical and legal standards.
This prep tool was developed independently by certified Handle With Care® instructors to align with the core curriculum and testing objectives. It is designed to be a powerful study aid to supplement your official training.
Yes! You can take a free practice exam right now. You’ll get full access to all platform features, including the detailed analytics and performance breakdown, so you can see exactly how our tool can help you prepare.
Knowing the holds is only half the battle. The written exam ensures you have the critical knowledge to prevent crises, make sound judgments about when a hold is necessary, and perform it in a way that is safe, legal, and ethical. It protects you, your organization, and the individuals in your care.
