Scheduling an exam

  • Log into your Prolydian account at https://app.prolydian.com and go to Exams > My exams
  • Click the "Schedule" button below the name of your exam

Note: If you see an "Update Address" button instead of a "Schedule" button, click on that button and update your address. This will need to be completed before scheduling your exam.

         

  • A new window will pop up with scheduling options. If the Time Zone is not listed or not correct, choose the correct option from the drop down menu

You can also set your account's time zone following the steps in the "Setting Your Account's Time Zone" section below. This will ensure all times shown in Prolydian are in your time zone.

  • Pick your date from the drop down calendar or enter it with the MM/DD/YYYY format.

  • Click the search button to find available exam times. Choose a time from the provided menu – make sure to pay attention to AM and PM.

  • Tick the check box confirming your date, time, and time zone. 

  • Click the "Schedule" button to finalize the process and schedule your exam.

You will be returned to the My Exam page and will see the exam listed with the scheduled date and time. You will receive an email with additional instructions within 5 minutes of scheduling your exam.

Rescheduling an exam
