Upon successful completion, you will receive an email within one business day that confirms your transcript has been updated and a link to create your electronic certificate. The certificate will be in a Portable Document Format (PDF) file. You will be able to save and /or print the file. Adobe Reader is required to open the certificate. If you do not have this software, it can be obtained as a free download at http://www.adobe.com.

Your attention to these types of requests is important to make certain that your exam submission is processed correctly.
