10. Exam
ITIL Virtual Exam Process:
People in virtual ITIL classes will get an e-mail during class with instructions on setting up the web-based exam.
ITPreneurs is administering the exams.
As of January 1, 2012, all exam agencies are going to have to comply with APMG€(TM)s rules regarding individual candidates, which means they will now have to take their exams using a web-cam proctor. Students will no longer be allowed to nominate their own live proctor. The proctors will be supplied by the exam agencies and they do have native English-speaking proctors. Exams can be taken at any time of the day or night and can even be taken from the student€(TM)s home now. Students will need to have a web-cam, but the standard web-cam that comes embedded in most laptops is perfectly acceptable.
 We ask for 5 business days between submitting information to ITPreneurs and when they want to test.
Cancellation Policy
We require 16 calendar days notice to reschedule or cancel any registration. Failure to provide the required notification will result in 100% charge of the course. If a student does not attend a scheduled course without prior notification it will result in full forfeiture of the funds and no reschedule will be allowed. Within the required notification period, only student substitutions will be permitted. Reschedules are permitted at anytime with 16 or more calendar days notice. Enrollments must be rescheduled within six months of the cancel date or funds on account will be forfeited.
