National Exam Tidbit

  NOTA JOURNAL ITEM---------

 

National Exam... When applying to take the national exam through NCCAP, the name you submit to NCCAP needs to match the name on your legal identification. When you go to the testing center or take the test remotely, the proctor will ask to see your legal identification such as a driver's license or passport. The name on this ID must match the name provided to Prometric by NCCAP.   All test applicants must have the following documents when taking the national exam, in person or remotely:   -Current ID (drivers license or passport) which has your legal name as has been submitted to the testing company. -Printed copy of the approval letter which was e-mailed to candidate from Prometric. A copy on your phone will not be accepted.   All exam candidates receive a detailed “Do's and Don'ts” list with important details on how to successfully take the remote exam. Candidates also receive detailed instructions from the test company Prometric that must be followed when taking the exam remotely.   If any of the required conditions for remote testing are not met, the exam cannot be completed. When this happens, the testing company charges you to reschedule and you must pay another test fee.    REMEMBER: Do not take the exam at work! Even if you use your personal computer, your Internet at work has security features that don’t work with the testing company system. Your work has firewalls and security features that prevent the exam from being taken regardless of what computer you use. Even if you seek support from your technical department at work, the testing company system will still not work. If you still try to take the exam at work, have technical difficulties, and seek support from the testing company, these technical difficulties will not be resolved. Again, do not take the exam at work!   PLEASE NOTE: Your operating system must meet the requirements listed below. Before the test you are supposed to run a pre-scan to see if your computer will work.   Operating System Windows 8.1 or higher | MacOS 10.13 or higher (*note iPad/Android tablets are not currently supported. Microsoft Surface or similar can be used only when configured in laptop mode).   All Prometric testing centers are now open. Consider taking the National ADC Exam at a testing center to minimize the challenges of the remote exam. Please contact us with any questions: info@nccap.org.
