Reasonable accommodations provide candidates with disabilities a fair and equal opportunity to demonstrate their knowledge and skill in the essential functions being assessed by the examination. Reasonable accommodations are decided based on the individual’ s specific request, disability, documentation submitted, and appropriateness of the request.

Examination Sites
To view a list of where upcoming examinations will be offered, please click here for the IQT sites, and click here for the Prometric test sites.
All IQT Testing sites are independently operated from Prometric and therefore they update their calendar on a month to month basis (most often at the beginning of each month). For this reason, we suggest not attempting to schedule your exam prior to one month before your exam in order to see the most up-to-date testing locations offered.
Prometric will provide you with your testing location' s address and driving directions with your test confirmation. Your test confirmation will be sent to you via email immediately after your appointment has been made.
Please reach out to info@aalnc.org with questions.
