Booking your exam will allow us to see the demand and location of sitters, which will allow us to focus on arranging exam centres in the highest demand areas.
Once we have successfully secured exam centre locations, we will be in touch within three weeks of your original booking to offer you an exam centre as local to you as possible. If you prefer not to continue with your April exam booking at this stage, you will be offered a full refund.
We will be using your preferred contact address saved in your ‘my account’ area.
Please log in and update your preferred contact address if you think this may not be up to date.
Our intention is to confirm exam centres that will provide all the equipment you will need to sit the exam. But this will be confirmed once the allocation of exam centres has been agreed.
We will be in contact with all candidates booked in for the April session to confirm as soon as we have more information.
We are hoping to provide additional monitors that will be connected to a laptop for your use during the exam. You will only be permitted to use one screen during the exam, and we will be in touch to confirm details once the information is available.
