Before the exam day

1. Create your Gameplan account

You need a Gameplan account to take a certification exam. Visit app.gameplan.com/certifications to create your account. If you already have an account, sign in with it instead.

Your certification activity, including your exam attempts, results, and certificates, is connected to your Gameplan account.

2. Complete your Candidate Profile

Before you can take your first certification exam, you need to complete your Candidate Profile. Your Candidate Profile identifies you as a Candidate and gives the name on your certificates. It asks for:

• Your full name

• Your date of birth

The information you provide must match your valid ID. You can update your Candidate Profile yourself until a Proctor first verifies your identity and accepts your application to an Exam Session. After that, contact Gameplan Support to make changes.

Completing it gives you a Candidate ID, shown at the bottom of the left-side certification menu. A Testing Center outside your school or organization may ask for it to arrange accommodations.

You must be at least 13 years old to take a Gameplan certification exam.

3. Check how you’ll receive your voucher

You need a voucher to take the exam, but not necessarily before exam day.

Your Testing Center gives you either:

• A voucher code of your own.

• A voucher from the Exam Session’s voucher pool, on exam day.

If you’re unsure which, ask your teacher or Testing Center Administrator before exam day.

If you receive a voucher code

Redeem it while signed in to Gameplan, and it’s linked to your account for good. Redeeming doesn’t use an attempt. An attempt is only used when you start the exam.

If drawing from a voucher pool

You don’t need to redeem a voucher ahead of time. On exam day, you’re given one from the Exam Session’s voucher pool when your application is accepted.
