Test centres need to know in advance when you will be attending. For this reason, test availability is only displayed 48 hours from the date you are booking. Tests can usually be booked up to three months in advance.
When you have selected a time and date for your test the details will be displayed on screen; please ensure you carefully review these before continuing. Once you have confirmed the details of the test you will be given the option to ‘book test’. The test booking will not be made until this option has been selected.
You will receive an on-screen confirmation of your booking and an e-mail confirming the test details as well as directions to the test centre. You must bring this confirmation email with you to the test centre. If you do not receive the e-mail, please check your booking by logging on to the booking website and selecting ‘view booked tests’.
If you wish to book another test in a different subject area, you will need to go through the booking process again. You are able to book all three skills tests on the same day providing there is availability at the test centre, however, it is advisable to leave at least one hour between each test.
Please note that you can only have one test booked in each subject at any one time.
Should you wish to reschedule or cancel a booked test you are able to do this by selecting ‘view booked tests’, however, if you wish to cancel a test on the day of the booking you are advised to contact the candidate helpdesk.
