All certifications posted are self-certifications. This means you can study these in your own time and at your own pace. 

Once ready, set the exam and once done, notify FD COC or ping saem-coc that you have completed the certification.
A member of either FD COC or SAEM COC will validate your answers and if you pass, you will be granted the certification on the public roster, at which point you will have completed said certification!
