Exam Performance Notes<\/strong><\/summary>
\n

Examinations may not match the number of candidates certified for several reasons:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  1. Some AP\/CP candidates, both first-time takers and repeaters, take only one portion (either AP or CP) of the examination. These candidates are not certified until both AP and CP are passed.

    <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Certified candidates include AP\/CP candidates who passed either the AP or CP examination previously and requested single certification during the reporting year.

    <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Certified candidates also include candidates who passed the examinations in a previous year but did not provide documentation of licensure or other required information until the reporting year.
