Step 1:   Thoroughly review the Candidate Guide to Certification. 

• It is the responsibility of the candidate to read the entire contents of this Guide before applying for the examination.  
• It is the responsibility of the candidate to know of all deadlines associated with the certification process.  Late registrations are not accepted.  
• Remember - your examination date may be any day during one of the four testing months.  NAHAM does not offer specific testing dates; it is a date chosen by you and your proctor.
• It is the responsibility of the candidate to identify and confirm a qualified proctor.  NAHAM does not arrange proctors for examination candidates. 
• Official testing months are January, April, July and October.  Some NAHAM Affiliates may offer the paper/pencil version at their spring and fall meetings.  NAHAM offers the paper/pencil examination at the NAHAM Annual Educational Conference.
• It is the responsibility of the candidate to understand the Certification Maintenance program and applicable deadlines to keep his or her certification active.

Step 2:   Answer the following questions:

• Do I have a good understanding of the examination content outline? 
• Do I use this knowledge regularly at work?
