About the CHRT™ Credential

This list is not exhaustive. Any graduate of an accredited robotics, mechatronics, electromechanical, or industrial automation program may submit a transcript at exam registration for individual eligibility review. Trade schools, community colleges, and universities not yet listed can request review at ken@robotcare.app.

The United States Path 1 and Path 2 ecosystem includes ARM Institute (Advanced Robotics for Manufacturing) endorsed programs at community colleges and career and technical centers, four-year robotics and engineering programs at research universities, the Universal Technical Institute (UTI) campus network, the Lincoln Tech network, and the FANUC CERT partner school system.
