Note:

If the student is not able to attend instruction because of extenuating circumstances (internship, competitions, serious health issues), the student is required to contact the course instructor, obtain materials and arrange consultation hours. Otherwise, the student will not be awarded credit nor permitted to sit the exam.

Only exams taken at CJP in the last three years will be recognized. Exams taken at other institutions of higher education and other certificates do no release students from exam obligations.
