Certification Exams and COVID-19
The coronavirus outbreak has had quite an adverse effect on the AGO certification exam process, leading to either delays or outright cancellation of last spring’s exams. Now that we have begun a new exam cycle, for the safety of all involved the following regulations need to be carefully observed.
Anyone having difficulty finding an appropriate venue for a Service Playing test or Colleague exam due to restrictions in place caused by the pandemic should contact the director of the Committee on Professional Certification, André Lash, FAGO, in order to explore possible solutions.
