Scheduling
Important Information
On January 2, 2012, a redesigned version of the S201 Regulatory Element Program becomes effective in an effort to improve and keep the Continuing Education Program current and relevant. Individuals who schedule a S201 CE session for administration on or after January 2, 2012, will take the redesigned program.
Please be sure to review the related content outline for your applicable Regulatory Element Program, the animated orientation, and a brief sample case to help familiarize you with the material that may be covered. These resources, as well as general information about the programs, are available at www.finra.org/ce/training.
First-time test takers must create a Pearson VUE web account. First Name, Last Name and FINRA ID fields must match the information entered in FINRA’s Web CRD. Once the account is created, you can immediately schedule your appointment.
A separate username is no longer required. Enter your First Name, Last Name and FINRA ID to access your account. Same-day appointments can only be scheduled for test centers in the U.S. by an Americas customer service agent on Monday through Friday. Same-day scheduling is not permitted for an exam or CE session delivered outside of the U.S. If you cannot find your preferred date on the web, please contact customer service for further assistance.
After you schedule your test, Pearson VUE will send a confirmation letter listing your test date, your testing time, the address and phone number of the test center, and directions to the test center.
