Helpful Tips for Completing the Questionnaire
We recommend that you review the questionnaire in its entirety and collect all the information you will need to complete the
questionnaire (e.g., documents related to your education, licenses, certifications, etc.). Then, set aside a block of time that
is free of interruptions while you work on the questionnaire. Answer all questions that apply to your education, certification
and work experience as completely and accurately as possible. Save the information that you enter on each page by
clicking on the “Save” button, which is located at the end of each section. Review and print all saved information before you
submit your completed questionnaire.
Shared Questionnaires
Multiple examination(s) may use the same questionnaire. A list of the examination(s) used for each are noted under the
questionnaires. If you have applied for multiple examinations that utilize the same questionnaire, your submission will apply
to all examinations you have applied to. If you subsequently wish to apply for additional examination(s) that use this
questionnaire, you will be required to submit a separate questionnaire. This will not change your previous submission for
the previous examinations.
Shared Questions
If you have filled out any questionnaires in the past, you may see saved responses pre-populated where appropriate. This
feature is provided as a convenience to candidates. It is your responsibility to make sure all your responses are accurate
before you submit each questionnaire, including any pre-populated responses. You can change, delete or modify the
information on the questionnaire before you submit it for a new examination; however, this will not change your previous
submission. Each examination is scored based on your submission for that examination number.
Completed Questionnaires
Before you submit your questionnaire(s), you will be prompted to review your entries. We recommend you print a copy of
your responses to keep for your own records because this will enable you to check the information before you make your
final submission. When you submit your questionnaire(s), you will receive a confirmation stating that your questionnaire has
been successfully submitted.
