Special testing arrangements can be made for candidates or candidate groups who wish a CPS proctor to give the exam at the candidate's location. For an extra charge (see test fees), CPS will come to a place of business and proctor the exam for up to 20 candidates.
To request a special test site please provide the following information to CPS 5 business days prior to exam date:
Special arrangement testing is contingent upon materials and proctor availability. It is to your advantage to schedule these tests as far in advance as possible. Please contact CPS for further information at 263-3624.
