Exam updates offer convenience and accessibility

June 1st, 2018
by Elizabeth McDonald
  • Quick Hits

The International Code Council is continually evolving exam offerings, testing options and technology to ensure that all building and fire safety officials have access to the tools and resources needed to advance in today’s fast-paced and rapidly changing world.

Paper-and-pencil exams retiring June 30

All paper-and-pencil examinations will retire on June 30, 2018. As the growing need for accessibility and flexible options in the testing experience continues to rise, paper-and-pencil exam administrations have significantly decreased. You now have access to a much more convenient testing option through PRONTO, with expanded offerings coming soon.

Updated code years available

The following is the list of code years available for testing, starting this summer, for the next few years.

Computer-based testing (CBT): 2012, 2015

Proctored Remote Online Testing (PRONTO): 2015, 2018*

* Not all exams are available under PRONTO. Check the exam catalog for specific code year availability.
