Examination centres

If you are a distance-learning student or you wish to sit your exam at a different location, your options are as follows:

• Travel to the CQI exam location in central London (please contact the Education Team to find out more and how to register)
• Contact one of the current CQI education centres and ask if you can be accepted as an external student
• Contact any other local college or university and ask if you can be accepted as an external student
• Contact one of the organizations below to enquire if it could facilitate your examination. Some are private companies that have been accredited to provide examination facilities to CQI students 
• If you live outside the UK, please contact the British Council which can normally arrange for you to sit the examination there.

You need to inform the CQI of your examination centre no later than six weeks before the exam by using an alternative examination centre form (ED-22). This form is obtainable from your education centre. The form needs to be signed by an exam centre representative otherwise it will not be processed.

Fees

In almost all cases you will be expected to pay an additional fee to sit the examination at a centre's premises. Details should be obtained directly from the representatives of these organizations.
