After you request registration

On Day of the Exam

  • About 30 minutes before exam time, you will get an email with two links and instructions:
    • One link will connect you to a private video call through a browser. This step allows us to confirm your identity with government issue photo ID.
    • The other link connects you to the Exam from Home session.
