ISCD Certification - Remote Testing

ISCD Certification Exam Remote Testing Policy

(Not Available in the US)

The ISCD believes that no candidate should be denied success in becoming certified because of access difficulties or language. To accommodate such difficulties, ISCD allows a candidate to apply to have the ISCD Certification Exam proctored at a remote testing facility. All costs of remote testing must be borne by the candidate.

• Remote Testing:  Candidates unable to take the ISCD exam at planned scheduled locations may apply to take the ISCD exam at a ISCD approved testing facility (university, hospital, Sylvan or Kaplan Learning Center). The candidate will be required to submit to the ISCD details of the potential proctoring facility by application and, if approved, the exam will be forwarded to the proctoring facility directly by the ISCD. The exam, on completion, must be returned directly to ISCD by the proctoring facility for marking. Such requests must be made by written application to the ISCD by the candidate, and all costs of such provisions must be borne by the candidate.

• Language:  The ISCD is working to develop translations of ISCD certification exams in major world languages. During the translation development period, provision will be made to accommodate international candidates who require testing in languages other than English. 

A candidate may have the option of taking the exam with a non-physician/non-technologist translator present. This option may be available in special circumstances to accommodate specific testing needs. The candidate must apply to the ISCD for this option and bear all expenses associated with such testing, including the cost of a personal translator.
