During the coronavirus pandemic ICAS CA Students will be able to sit their exams and mocks remotely.

Sitting assessments remotely is a new process for ICAS that all ICAS CA students will be adjusting to.

Please find below some key information on how the process works and what to expect.

ICAS would like to remind you of your ethical responsibilities at this very difficult time. We will be monitoring submission times and using plagiarism software where appropriate. It is important that candidates operate under normal exam regulations as far as possible.

Access details will be issued to you before the assessment, if you have not received these instructions 24 hours prior to the assessment please contact ICAS at examinations@icas.com.
You must register your attendance in accordance with the instructions for your exam.
- TC after starting the remote proctor session.
- TPE/PTE is 30 minutes BEFORE the assessment is due to start (before morning and afternoon), a link will be sent to you when you receive the paper. For example, if the start time is 9am you must register before 8.30am
You will be asked to authenticate yourself as part of the registration process, please have ID in the form of a passport or driving license available. You must test your exam access prior to the exam day.

Please ensure that your ICAS contact number (mocks) OR Exam Candidate number (final exams) is used as the file name and is included at the top of every page submitted.
