Exam Day Online

Prepares candidates for the procedures and expectations on exam day for the NNAAP Online Examination in Alaska

Taking Your Exam Online

You can take your Written/Oral exam from home or work through Credentia Online proctoring. A live proctor (someone who supervises the test) will securely monitor you through the webcam on your workstation. Online exams also offer you more scheduling flexibility than test center exams to fit with your schedule.

Visit https://www.credentia.com/online-exams/ for information on what to expect and how to best prepare for your Online exam.

Requirements for Online Exam

  • The right computer – a desktop, laptop, or Chrome book with a single monitor (no smartphones or tablets). 
  • A private room – if you don’t have access to a private room, check with your training program or local library for availability. 
  • A mobile device – the proctor will need to see all around your exam area with a 360-degree room scan. Please be sure you have a smartphone or tablet (Apple or Android) that can do this using our free app.
