When can the exam be taken?

When an enrollee chooses an exam date is up to the enrollee: because an enrollee's work in the Certification Program is self-paced, enrollees are ready to take their course exams at different times of the year. As of late 2020, proctored exams are now offered monthly via Zoom meetings with TMCA staff. (Reservations on each date are limited, and advance booking of the exam is required)

Students should reserve a testing spot not less than two weeks prior to an exam date.
