We are delighted to announce that alongside our computer-based exam centre in the New Forest, all UK students are now able to take advantage of the CIPS ‘remote’ exam service. Say goodbye to long journeys to an exam centre and waiting nervously with other exam candidates. You now have far greater flexibility and an opportunity for a more personalised approach, all from the comfort of your own home!
As the exam candidate, you will need to make sure your IT equipment and smartphone can satisfy the minimum technical requirements, as well as having guaranteed secure broadband for the full duration of your exam. You will also need to guarantee an undisturbed and private room for the entirety of the exam. This will be your own private exam room with only the CIPS invigilator watching you via your PC webcam and/or your smartphone. If planning to use your employer’s IT equipment, you must seek their permission and check that this does not contravene any security policies.
Please speak to our exam centre manager for further details and our factsheet about this option. Remember: you will be personally liable for making sure everything during exam works!
