Add Exams for a Single Candidate
Once candidates have been added to a candidate list, you may schedule their exams. Scheduling is done in four basic steps: 1) select the exam or exams and add accommodations, 2) select a test center and time, 3) enter payment and billing information, and 4) submit the order.
When you add exams for a single candidate on an order, you may purchase the exams via vouchers, promo codes or discounts, or via credit card payment. You may add up to 30 exams on a single order.
