Exams and Graduation Requirements
Final exams for each of Levels 2 through 8 are given at the end of the course as a take-home comprehensive open book exam. Students can expect to spend between 30 and 70 hours on the exam. Students must pass this exam with a 90% grade or better to receive certification. Student’s may be required to retake all or part of an exam or may be required to take a workshop(s) over again if that particular area of study is deficient.
Once all coursework has been completed, all fees have been paid and all papers turned in and have been graded, THEN the student must make a request for the final exam. Within 30-days the exam will be given to the student who then has 30-days to complete the exam. All exams are take-home, open book (not open-internet access), students are asked to use the books from the Required Reading List and no others. After 30-days, the student then may either mail the exam back as a hard-copy, attach the exam in an email or a combination of both. The School then has 30-60 days to complete the grading process. The School will notify the student how they did on the exam and graduation preparations are then made. Graduation preparations include the student notifying the School of how their name should appear on their certificate or diploma and the address where the certificate should be sent.
