What is a beta test?
The beta version of an exam contains more questions than the final version of an exam, and requires more time to complete. Beta candidates will be graded only on those questions selected for final production. Consequently, beta candidates can expect to receive their test results 4 to 6 weeks following the beta period, when the selection process is complete as they are only scored on the items that will be on the final form.Candidates who take the final version of the exam will receive their score reports immediately upon completing the exam.
Upon successful completion of an exam, you will be awarded the corresponding credential, provided all required exams have been completed.
