4.  ADMINISTERING TESTS

Read the instructions guide included with your online order. Call NLN Customer Support Center at (800) 669-9656 if you have any technical difficulty or questions about administration and test-taking procedures.

First-time Test Takers (and Test Administrators) may take a short sample exam to familiarize themselves with the exam application once they log into the program. This exam includes a score report that will not be saved on the Test Taker's record. An extra five minutes should be allowed prior to the start of the actual exam for test takers to familiarize themselves to the online application.

If the same test title is placed within the 180-day period, any unused test administrations for that particular test will be renewed to reflect the new expiration date. To find out when your test(s) expires, go to the inventory screen of the NLN Online Testing Program and look for "Expiration Date." You may also contact NLN Customer Support Center at (800) 669-9656 for assistance.
