Prerequisites

Before participating in this course, students must possess a valid CTEC registration number.

Required Materials

20-hour Exam Booklet
IRS Publication 17 (textbook for federal section of the exam)
California Supplement (textbook for state section of the exam)

Passing Score

The open-book exam consists of 160 questions (multiple-choice and true-false) which are directly related to the assigned reading materials.  A minimum score of 70% (112 correct answers) is required for successful course completion.  98% of our students pass the exam on their first attempt.

Electronic CTEC Reporting

Once it is determined that a student has scored 70% or higher on the final exam, that student’s file is forwarded to the course administrator who then accesses the State database and instantly credits that successful student’s CTEC account with 15 federal hours and 5 California hours.

Test Review

All students who submit the grading fee receive a review of their 160 test responses at the end of the course.

Certificate of Completion

A passing grade on the final exam would result in the immediate delivery of a certificate of completion.  On their answer form, students will choose to have the certificate mailed, faxed, or emailed.  If the email option is selected, the certificate of completion would be attached to the student’s test results as a color PDF file.
