2021 Update Regarding ACI Certification and Events:  

We continue to work within the Governor’s Guidelines for health and safety. In coordination with our examiners and testing locations we are moving towards meeting certification needs. Where necessary, we created new processes, found new venues, and approaches to certification sessions.

Access ACI Certification Schedule and Registration here. Testing time selection is required during registration for both written & performance exams. 

As we recognize everyone must do their part, please be prepared to demonstrate your good health (no colds, fever, and symptom free) to be part of any exam/performance session. Bring your own PPE, eye-wear, masks, and gloves. We will have limited supplies. Best advise……. if you are not feeling well, please stay home, get better and will catch you once you are symptom free. Everyone is required to provide a health statement along with proper valid ID for each exam.

Update on restarting ACI Certification. 

Certification process changes to accommodate health and safety guidelines. Group gatherings are the challenge, at least for now, perhaps thru the remainder of this year. Changes include: 

• Online Virtual Review session. We are working to complete recorded on-demand review videos.
• ACI has online modules we may consider for Field, AA and Strength
• Written exams will be offered separately from review, as necessary.
• Written exam sessions; in small groups / multiple sessions. 

Performance testing options vary from limited small groups with strict scheduling. Contemplating Remote Performance Review. 
Revise Performance format: 

• Examinee does all testing at a single station with a single Examiner
• One Examiner per station
• Lab for their Examinee(s) brings own equipment including scales. Will have some community equipment available.
• Goal / need is to reduce interactions & improve to a more consistent process with examinees responsible for their equipment.
• No gathering in testing area or waiting area. Will schedule small groups in shifts.  

Finding a suitable place for written testing with sufficient distancing the challenge. Your (affordable) suggestions welcome. 
Redmond Comm. Ctr. out until they reach Phase 4 otherwise, they are not a viable option currently.
Same with performance exams, large enough location for small group distancing the challenge. 
Remote review via face time an option that has been discussed and being considered.

We will do our best to accommodate the needs but please recognize certification on demand is not something we can do. Sincere appreciation for your continued understanding, cooperation, and patience. 

Please continue to monitor for updates.
