Test Center Testing (TCT) 

Test Center Testing (TCT) allows candidates to take CCO written exams at a testing center via computer. Benefits of TCT include:

• Flexibility in scheduling and rescheduling
• Immediate score reporting*
• No late application or rescheduling fees

Scheduling Exams

Candidates may schedule exams at their convenience by logging onto their myCCO Portal and clicking “Schedule or Manage My Exams.” Candidates must schedule exams at least two days prior to testing.

What Does TCT Look Like?

Candidates take exams via a computer at TCT authorized test sites. Exams that require supplements (e.g., load charts) or calculators have these available on-screen. In place of scratch paper, candidates may use a physical whiteboard/dry erase board up to 8.5 in. x 11 in. or an on-screen whiteboard that is built into the exam.
