Schedule a CBT exam, find a test location, view contact information and more through the secure, Prometric Web site Please familiarize yourself with the FAQs below that cover:
What is computer-based testing? Computer-based testing is simply the administering of an examination using an electronic question-answer-and-score format. Individuals interested in sitting for the exams only need to contact a testing representative through their local Prometric test center. How are the computer-based tests administered? The examination will be administered by computer on an electronic testing system that eliminates the use of paper and pencil sheets. A keyboard or mouse will be used to answer examination questions presented on the computer screen. The computer will store responses and automatically time the examination. The time remaining and the number of the question currently being answered will be on the computer screen. Answers can be changed, skipped and marked for review. How much computer experience is required for computer-based testing? No prior computer experience is necessary to complete the electronic examination. The computer-based testing provides simple, easy-to-follow instructions to complete the examination. What are the benefits of computer-based testing?
What will the application process entail? All applications must be submitted to the ASIS Certification Department. The application review process will take approximately 3-4 weeks. Candidates should apply 8 weeks prior to their chosen exam month or they will be automatically rolled over to the next available testing window. Will I still have the opportunity to test at the ASIS Annual Seminar and Exhibits? ASIS will no longer administer any tests during the Annual Seminar. How much does it cost to take the exam? The CBT exam cost is $300 for members and $450 for non-members USD and the retest fee is $200. What if I decide not to test? If candidates are found ineligible or decide not to test, they may request that their test fee be refunded. However, the application fee (which is $100) is non-refundable. Exam Reservation How can I reserve a test date and location? International test center locations and contact information is available online at www.prometric.com/ASIS. A representative at Prometric's Candidate Service Center will help candidates select the optimal test date and test location, provide specific instructions and directions, and answer any questions about the testing process. The representative will also give candidates a confirmation number, which must be taken with them to the testing center when they sit for the exam. Exam Reconfirmation and Cancellation How can I reconfirm my test date? Appointments can be reconfirmed using the confirmation number received when appointment was scheduled through Prometric. How can I cancel a scheduled exam? If candidates are unable to take the examination on the scheduled date, they must notify Prometric at least three business days in advance. Failure to do so will result in the candidate's inability to schedule any future appointments, until ASIS has been contacted and another $200 testing fee has been paid. Prometric permits NO exceptions to this rule. Exam Administration Procedures What must I take to the testing center? Upon arrival at the test center candidates must report to the test center manager and present the following:
How long will I have to test? Four hours is available to complete the CPP examination and two and a half for the PCI and PSP examinations. At the end of this time, the test taker's computer screen will indicate that time has expired. The test center manager should be notified and the candidate will sign out. Can answers be changed once selected? Candidates may change answers as often as desired and may also skip or return to questions at a later time. The amount of time spent completing the demographic questions will not reduce the time allotted for the examination. When can I expect my exam results?
