Request for Special Testing Accommodations

Religious Beliefs

Should a candidate desire to sit for an examination in which the date conflicts with religious beliefs in any way, BCPO^® recommends the candidate check the list of examination dates at www.certifiedprofessionalorganizers.org for an alternate date or an alternate location with an examination scheduled on a conforming date. If an alternate date or location is not available, the candidate should notify registrations@isoqualitytesting.com immediately.

Disabilities

BCPO^® provides special accommodations in accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1991. If a disability prevents you from taking the examination under normal conditions, you may request special accommodations. You must submit along with your application form a written request for special accommodations that explains the nature of the disability and the type of accommodation you feel is appropriate. In addition, you must provide supporting documentation of the diagnosis from a licensed health care professional.

English as a Second Language

The CPO^® examination is offered in English only. If English is not your primary language, BCPO^® recommends (but does not require) that candidates sit for the TOEFL^® (Test of English as a Foreign Language) examination prior to sitting for the CPO^® examination. Your scores on the TOEFL^® will provide a useful gauge for you to ascertain whether reading and comprehending English will present problems for you on the CPO^® examination. The TOEFL^® examination is offered at multiple locations both domestically and internationally throughout the year. More information is available at www.ets.org. For reasons of examination security, BCPO^® does not allow translation dictionaries in the examination room.
