2020 Exam Administration Windows Extended

In light of the COVID19 pandemic and its effects throughout the world, the CLP Board of Governors has extended the April examination window to July 31, 2020. Eligible candidates may take the certification exam up to July 31 through live-online proctoring (at the candidate's home or office) or at a Scantron test center (as availability allows). 

The following revised timelines apply:

• Application deadline: 7 business days prior to the desired test date or July 23, 2020, 11:59pm EST, whichever comes first
• Scheduling deadline: 2 days prior to the desired testing appointment or July 29, 2020, 11:59pm EST, whichever comes first

The fall testing window, typically held during the month of October, has also been extended. Candidates wishing to test during the second window of 2020 may schedule an exam appointment September 1 - November 30. Candidates may only schedule an exam appointment for the closest exam window. Candidates wishing to test September 1 - November 30 may schedule an exam appointment beginning in August.
