Coming Soon: ICF Credentialing Exam with a Scheduled Break

Beginning February 1, the ICF Credentialing Exam will allow for a five-minute scheduled break midway through the three-hour exam period. This scheduled break will provide the opportunity for candidates to take a brief pause from their computer-based test, whether taking the exam in person at a Pearson VUE testing center or online via Pearson’s remote-proctored OnVUE testing service.

Since the launch of the ICF Credentialing Exam in August 2022, ICF Credentials and Standards has received feedback from candidates, educators, mentor coaches, and chapters regarding the need for a brief break in the exam. We appreciate the feedback we’ve received, and we hope this important adjustment to the exam format will improve the experience for ICF credential candidates.
