IMPORTANT! Before you register, we've got a few tips for you to consider when choosing your exam:
- You will be required to pay for your exam first before you can schedule if you are taking a National Certification, California, or UST/AST exam. But don't worry; you'll have one year upon purchasing your exam to officially schedule or reschedule it without paying for your exam again.
- You must be logged in to myICC to make an exam purchase. If you think you may already have an account, please contact us before creating a new account so we can ensure all of your information stays under one account.
