The options available for exams to be written:

Availability must be confirmed by the examinee prior to the selection as some of these institutions/centres may not be booking on your specified date. Here is a list of educational institutions/exam centres that have offered proctoring services in the past (see list)

2. CAP-ACP Conference

Please allow for at least three weeks between submission of the Exam Location Form and the exam to allow CCCPA to work with the institutions/centres/proctors and ship the materials.

If there are extenuating circumstances, the CCCPA Exam Committee may authorize a proctor (without a conflict of interest) to invigilate your exam. Written requests for this approval must be submitted to info@cccpa-cccap.org

The applicant will be allowed 3 exam attempts under the new route of certification; however, this must be done within the deadline of that certification route. All decisions made by the CCCPA may be appealed. The process for appeals can be found here
