No, registration is exam-specific and not open-ended. By registering for a single exam, you are committing yourself to a date- and time-specific exam, and you may not postpone from one testing window to another, e.g., you cannot change your September exam registration to March. If you are unable to sit for the exam for which you are currently registered, or if you do not pass, you will need to re-register to take the exam during a future exam window. The fee for reregistering for an exam is US$795, regardless of whether you sat for the exam the first time.
Neither the CAIA Association nor Pearson VUE can guarantee availability of appointments for any given exam, location, or specific date.
Appointments are scheduled on a first-come/first-served basis. Candidates are encouraged to schedule appointments as soon as possible, as examination centers have limited capacity. If a Candidate’s preferred location and time are not available, it is solely the Candidate's responsibility to locate, and arrange for transportation to, an alternate testing center. Deferments will not be granted to Candidates who are unable to sit for the exam due to lack of preferred site availability or failure to schedule an appointment.
For complete details, please refer to the Special Accommodations page of our website.
If you need to change your exam appointment, you may reschedule to another date and/or location within the same testing window only, and subject to availability at the time. You can reschedule up to 72 hours before your original appointment by rescheduling through your CAIA account.
