Testing Information

How do I schedule my exam?

After you have applied for a CCM exam, been approved, and received your exam scheduling instructions, you can log into your CCMC account and choose "Manage Exam" to schedule your appointment.

Fees

Deferral Fee $85
Paid if you defer your exam appointment to the next consecutive exam window.  This
fee may be in addition to any of the fees above.
Retake Fee $195
Paid if you need to reschedule another exam in the next consecutive exam window due to not receiving a passing score.

How long will it take for my eligibility or authorization to test to be downloaded into the system so that I can schedule an appointment to test?
CCMC requires eligibility to test.  After reviewing and approving your application, the files are immediately sent to the Pearson VUE system and candidates can schedule their exam upon receiving your approval from CCMC.  Log into your CCMC account and choose "Manage exam".

Why would my local test center tell me that they don't schedule appointments?
The testing center's primary purpose is to administer exams. Some centers may
schedule appointments if you call them directly, however, this is more the exception
than the rule. Most will not. Test centers prefer to have all of their appointments
scheduled online or work with CCMC directly for guidance. 

AFTER THE TEST

When will I receive my score reports?
You will receive a preliminary Pass/Not Pass score at the test center.  You will receive an email notification to check your dashboard within 2 weeks of the end of the testing window. The dashboard will include their score and results for each of the domain areas.

Results for the August 2025 CCM Exam: Candidates taking the August 2025 CCM exam will NOT receive immediate pass/no pass notification because a standard-setting study must be conducted whenever a new exam blueprint is introduced to establish a cut score for the exam. Candidates will be notified via email that the results have been uploaded to their CCMC account within sixty (60) days of the end of the testing window. Notification regarding exam results is in alignment with certification best practices related to the implementation of a new exam blueprint.
