Thank you for your interest in participating in our pilot testing process. Because we must wait until all pilot testers have completed their material, we do not recommend using a pilot test course to meet CPE reporting deadlines. Please follow these instructions:

1.	Read the book or publication. We do ask that you read the publication in its entirety, in a manner similar to what you would do if you were studying and learning the material, so be sure to allow enough time to do so. If the exam covers software help files, be prepared to read the pages cited for the related question. Do not just scan the reading material for the answers. The review questions should be completed and studied. Carefully document your study time. We want to determine the time required for a quality learning experience so we can recommend CPE credit based on true study and exam time. CPE credit for our courses is calculated based on a "100 minute hour." This means that credit hours for the pilot test will be calculated as 50% of the average completion time of the pilot test participants. For example, if the average completion time for a course is 4 hours the CPE credit is calculated as 2 hours credit. We suggest that you print out the exam to have on hand while reading the course materials.
2.	Take the exam Use the Login link at the top of the page to login to the online testing system. Select the pilot test. The Review Questions Exam must be completed prior to completing the Final Exam Note any questions that are vague or very difficult to answer.
3.	Complete the online Course evaluation/Independence statement.
4.	Submit your resume (online, email, fax or mail), if you have not submitted one in the past to us.
5.	Email any additional comments or questions you may have, including a list of any questions that were vague or too difficult.
