Preparing for an examination

The following checklist will help on the day of your examination.

• Please arrive at least 30 minutes early for registration as you will need to present your photo ID for checking.
• Confirm the location and travel arrangements (including parking if required) well ahead of time so you are not late. Go to Cliftons Reception to be advised regarding the location for examination registration.
• Registration strictly closes 15 minutes before the examination session starts. You will not be able to sit the exam if you arrive after this time.
• Ensure you have your login credentials for the MSPP available.
• Copies of the Act, regulations and relevant codes of practice will be available for your use, but you may wish to bring your own marked-up copies.
• Electronic devices, pens and cheat sheets or notes are not permitted during the examination.
