Accessing Your Online Exam
Before taking the exam, be sure you have your User Name, Password and Candidate ID (refer to confirmation e-mail). Be sure your pop-up blockers are all turned off. High speed internet connection is recommended. Once you log in, select the exam section you which to take.
Work slowing and consistently through the exam questions. Your time will appear on each screen to assist you in managing your time. Remember, an incomplete attempt will be counted as an exam attempt and will reflect in your final grade. Answer all questions as they appear. You cannot go back to skipped questions. Do not hit the ‘back button’ on your internet browser, or you will lose your work. |

Exam Retests
Your initial exam fees pays for one attempt at the FNGLA online certification exam only. Should you need to retest on any section of the exam, you pay only for those exams you need to retake. Remember, each exam section may be taken a maximum of 3 times in one year. |
