Registration Procedures

Create a Certiport Account and Purchase an Individual Test Voucher

A Certiport.com account is required for every test taker who wishes to take an exam at UTC. Go to certiport.com, and select the Login/Register button in the upper corner. Follow the on-screen directions to create a free account.

If needed, a detailed guide of the account creation process is available for download.

Once a Certiport.com account is created, test takers should go to store.certiport.com to purchase an individual test voucher for the specific exam they plan to take. Before purchasing a test voucher from Certiport, make sure the desired test is on the list of tests we administer above.

Note: Test takers must know their Certiport.com username and password and provide their test voucher code in order to access the exam on test day (this may be different than the username and password used to purchase a voucher through the Certiport store).
