Exam Schedule - UPPCC Examinations will be changing in 2008, click here for the 2008 -2010 Exam Schedule of Dates and associated deadlines. For more information about this and other Program changes, click here.

UPPCC written examinations may be conducted at a time and location convenient for both the candidate and the proctor on the second Monday or third Friday or of any month. Candidates will receive a Request for Certification Examination form at the time written notification of eligibility is received. The candidate can make arrangements for testing in one of two ways:

Option 1: Individual Administration. Proctors can be engaged from a college or university located in the general area of the candidate, or the candidate may ask an official in the Personnel or Human Resources department whose duties include proctoring examinations. Examination material is forwarded directly to the designated proctor, who then administers the examination and returns the examination materials to the certification coordinator. If the candidate has difficulty in establishing a proctor, they may contact the UPPCC Certification Dept. at (703) 736-8900 ext. 236 for assistance.

Option 2: Group Administration. Any group of individuals qualified by UPPCC to take the examination is eligible to test as a group. In order to request a group exam, a representative from the group should complete the Request for a Group Examination form and return it to the UPPCC for processing. Typically group exams are organized through structured groups such as a regional or local chapter of NIGP. Any eligible candidate may join an already organized group examination by notifying the UPPCC certification coordinator via the Request for Certification Examination form which indicates the name of the group examination and the date the examination is scheduled. A current list of Group Examinations is provided below:
