Scheduling your Exam

There are two ways to take your exam. Depending on the exam you are taking, you can take your exam either in a Prometric Test Center where we provide the computer or through a remotely proctored internet enabled location of your choice where you must provide a computer with a camera, microphone and an internet connection.
