Where do I start the scheduled exam

Question

I am scheduled to an exam tomorrow (in about 12 hours), but I do not find how or were I start the exam

Please help me to clarify how to process.

Thanks, Anette

Answer 1

You start your exam using your Microsoft account in Microsoft Learn from https://learn.microsoft.com/users/me/credentials/?tab=credentials-tab

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/credentials/certifications/online-exams-intro#how-to-start-an-online-proctored-exam

Answer 2

To start a scheduled Microsoft certification exam:

1. Sign in to Microsoft Learn with the personal Microsoft account (MSA) associated with the certification profile used to book the exam.
2. Select the profile photo/avatar and open Profile.
3. Open Certifications in the profile navigation.
4. At the top of the page, find the scheduled appointment.
5. Select Go to the exam.
6. This takes the session to Pearson VUE. Then:
   • select the exam under Purchased Online Exams
   • select Begin exam
   • complete the self-check-in steps and wait for the proctor

Recommended timing: log in 15 minutes early to begin check-in.

If the exam is not visible in the Certifications tab, the appointment should normally appear there. If there is an issue after the exam, contact Microsoft Credentials support.
