All testing is online; therefore, you may take any test at any location and time. Once you have found the correct date and time, click onto the hyperlinked date. It will take you to the appropriate PurplePass ticket. Once you have completed your order, you will receive email confirmation from PurplePass. Bring a copy of the email receipt with you, along with appropriate photo identification, when you check in to test.
All tests are given in the 2025 ABC Edition. It is advised that you look at the NEED TO KNOW materials that are found HERE.
If you find that you need to change your test date and/or your test type, contact Maggie at operatorcert@gmail.com as quickly as possible. She will be able to either make the changes prior to your test or she may suggest that you request a test type change with the proctor on the day of the test.
BATHROOM POLICY: Testers are NOT allowed to use the bathroom facilities while taking the exam. Therefore, be sure to use the facility prior to testing.
The only exception is for testers with frequent urination/bladder continence issues. If you have bladder issues, you will be allowed to use the bathroom... BUT ONLY if you provide a doctor's note to the proctors. Further, the bathrooms will be checked before and after you are done and if anything is found it will be reported and you will not be allowed to finish your exam.
DO NOT CONTACT ABC FOR ANY CHANGE REQUESTS FOR THESE TESTS.
2025/26 TESTING SCHEDULE
Glendale is private for employees of Glendale. If there are available tickets near test time, they may be opened to the public.
NO SHOW POLICY!
If you purchase a ticket and DO NOT show up for your test, your ticket WILL NOT be rescheduled. You will lose it. Instead, you must purchase a new ticket for the next test. The only exception to this rule is if you have contacted Maggie prior to the test with your excuse for not showing, or within a day after the missed test with your excuse of emergency, and she will reschedule your test. Purplepass and the proctors and GateWay Test center CANNOT reschedule you. Maggie can only reschedule you.
