Hello Ginger,
I passed my C4C10 certification yesterday. Your blog was helpful for what is coming.
Proctoring was good. I personally believe this is really convenient for giving certification test.
One check as you mentioned is please verify the time zone one scheduled the exam. Check your email and it will show 9am UTC based on that calculate your exam time in ones time zone.
One more question is how and when I will receive my score report and certificate details?
Thank you,
Pavan Pokkunuri
Hi Pavan
I think you just get the certificate when you pass and you must download it, nothing else is sent.
