Before reserving the state licensing exam
This offering is supplemental study. It does not provide approved prelicensing hours or an exam-eligibility certificate. If you complete an approved prelicensing course, obtain its training-school code from that provider before reserving your Pearson VUE licensing exam.
A training-school code identifies the education provider for exam registration. Your sign-in verification code and private proctor invitation serve different purposes.
