Scheduling your exam:
Candidates have two options for taking ABC certification exams. You have the option to take your exam at a Prometric Test Center or at a remote location of your choice. By choosing a remote proctored exam, you will provide a computer with a camera, microphone and a reliable internet connection, and you are assuming responsibility for any interruptions, which may void your exam.
Prometric Testing Center
To schedule an exam at a Prometric Test Center, select the appropriate option on the left side of the screen under Test Center Exam.
Remotely Proctored Exams
Online, remote exams are offered using Prometric’s ProProctor™ application. For a remotely proctored exam, you must supply the computer which must have a camera, microphone and an internet connection and be able to install a lightweight app prior to the test event. You will be able to take the exam online while a Prometric proctor is overseeing the examination process remotely.
