How it works
Three steps between you and your certification.
- 01
Pick your exam & time
Choose Manager or Handler, an evening, weekend, or same-day slot, and your language.
- 02
Test from anywhere
You'll need a webcam, a quiet private room, and a government-issued photo ID.
- 03
Certified same day
Your live proctor reviews and issues your ANAB-accredited certificate the same day.
Why a human proctor
The exam is standardized. Your proctor doesn't have to be.
You're getting the same ANAB-accredited certification either way. We just make the path there considerably less painful.
