4. Booking, rescheduling and cancelling your exam

1. When you register for your exam, fill out your Official Name (as it appears on your government-issued ID that you will present on exam day) and your contact number.

2. Next, read and accept the Terms and Conditions.

3. Once registered, you may reschedule the date and time of your booking (pending availability) and/or cancel your time slot if necessary. If you choose to do so, you will receive a confirmation notification in your inbox.

5. Preparing for your exam


To help you prepare for the exam you can utilize the following tools:

1. Take a free practice exam available in the Learning Path. You can take and re-take this as many times as you like.

2. Download our Configuration & Pre-Check software (LockDown Browser) which will be required for you to take your exam.

3. Ensure you have an up-to-date government-issued photo identification card to verify your ID before taking the exam.

4. Find a quiet testing space away from distractions.

6. On the day of your exam


On the day of your exam, you will be prompted with a reminder email containing  a Zoom link which will then connect you with our proctor online. Please connect at least 30 minutes before your allocated exam time.

Your proctor will verify your identity and then allow you to launch your exam. You will have 90 minutes to complete your exam. Upon completion you will be notified whether you have passed or failed.

If you passed – congratulations! You can claim your certification badge in CertView and share it with your network and peers.

If you failed, you must wait another five days before you can retake your exam. You will also have to complete course hours in your Learning Path (if you have not done so). For your second attempt, you must complete two hours of training and for your third attempt, four hours of training.

Please note, if your second and subsequent attempts fall outside of our certification promotional period, you may be asked to purchase the exam via Oracle University and/or Pearson VUE.
