Canadian ISCEBS Annual Continuing Education Course/Examination
Examination date - June 5, 2013, 9:30 - 11:30 a.m.
The Canadian Continuing Education courses/examinations are developed by Dalhousie University in Halifax and updated annually. These educational materials include selected readings, an introduction to each topic area, an outline of the subject matter and key concepts for review. The Canadian examination is offered in the traditional paper and pencil format.
The exam length is two hours regardless of whether you choose one track or both. The exam for each track will feature a maximum of 50 questions. If you test on both tracks, the exam will have up to 100 questions. The question structure (straight answer, multiple option and all except) will remain the same.
Individuals taking the examination receive a pass/not-passed grade and a diagnostic evaluation of their continuing education proficiency. This confidential information is sent out approximately 30 days after the exam date.

Exam Application Procedures
There is nonrefundable fee of $125 per track, or $195 for both. The examination application and fee must be postmarked on or before the deadline date. CEBS graduates and GBA, RPA and CMS designees who are Society members may file a membership/continuing education examination application. After receipt of your application and fee, a confirmation letter is generated and mailed to you within three weeks. If you do not receive this confirmation, contact the Society office to check the status of your application.
Approximately ten days prior to the examination day, applicants receive an admission ticket to the exam site. This ticket must be presented to the exam proctor in order to be admitted to the exam room.
There can be no deviation from the scheduled day and hour set. In the remote contingency that it would be impossible to give an examination at the scheduled time, or that the examinee's completed examination was lost in transit (not returned), the International Society's liability is limited to a complete refund of the filing fee paid with respect to such examination.
An applicant who fails to appear for the examination forfeits the filing fee. (The filing fee is not refundable or transferable to another year or to another individual.)
