A Remote Exam is an alternative format of the traditional in-person RCM examination. An RCM examination is a globally standardized assessment conducted by an independent examiner. This standardization provides students, parents and teachers the opportunity to track and measure progress as well as celebrate achievements within the RCM Certificate Program.
With a Remote Exam, the same assessment can be completed by the same College of Examiners, but in your own home. This format eliminates time spent on coordinating exam location selections and travel on exam day. If you can video chat with your friends and family, you can take a remote exam.
