Exams
The exam is included as part of your enrolment bundle (where stated).
Your exam credits are included as part of your enrolment Bundle.
The exam credit is valid for one year from the date of purchase and is used as payment for your Authorization To Test (ATT). This is done on the APICS website.
The ATT allows you to book and schedule your exam through the APICS website, which should then take you to the Pearson VUE website and allow you to pick a Pearson VUE-authorized test centre and then see available dates.
If you fail to book and sit your exam before your ATT expires, then your exam fee will be forfeit.
We recommend booking your exam at least one month before your intended exam date.
