Scheduling and rescheduling
After purchasing a voucher, you schedule your exam separately through your AT*SQA account. You do not need to schedule at the time of purchase. Your 365-day voucher window starts from the purchase date, not the date you schedule.
Online exams use secure remote proctoring and are available worldwide. You need a compatible computer, webcam, and a stable internet connection. Review the online exam instructions before your exam date to confirm your setup meets the requirements.
Test center exams are available at Kryterion locations. If you prefer a supervised in-person environment, use the test center instructions to find a location and understand check-in requirements.
Rescheduling is free if you do it at least 72 hours before your scheduled exam time. Rescheduling with less than 72 hours notice may forfeit the voucher. Verify the current policy at atsqa.org/exam-instructions before scheduling.
