Students can use the exam
content outline as a checklist of
the material that will be covered
on the test and work their way
through topics as they study.

Encourage students who need
extra support to take a review
course.

Where to Test
Students can take the exam at your school if
it is a Pearson VUE site. Otherwise, students
can take the exam at one of the hundreds of
Pearson VUE testing center locations across
the country by scheduling their exam at their
convenience.

Don't Forget
Students must receive a confirmation from
AMT that they are cleared to take the exam.
They will receive an email, and they can
check their status on My AMT Portal at any
time. Students can test before they complete
their externship.
