INFORMS reserves the right to cancel any examination due to inclement weather, power failure, or other
unforeseen circumstances that make holding the exam untenable. Affected candidates will have their
examinations rescheduled at no additional cost.
Special Examination Arrangements
Candidates with Disabilities
INFORMS complies with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). INFORMS strives to ensure that no
individual with a documented disability is deprived of the opportunity to take the certification examination
solely by reason of that disability provided that reasonable special accommodations can be made.
To request special accommodations, candidates must complete the INFORMS Certification Examination
Special Accommodations form (Appendix B). The form includes a statement of the disability and a history of
previous accommodations in education, training, assessment, or the workplace. Candidates must provide all
documentation with their application and fees at least 45 days prior to a desired examination date. INFORMS
also requires that applicants notify INFORMS of any requests for special accommodations when calling to
schedule examinations.
Candidates Requesting Other Special Arrangements
Religious Obligations. If attendance at a scheduled examination date conflicts with a candidate’s religious
obligations, INFORMS will attempt to arrange an alternate examination day. INFORMS must receive these
requests at least 45 days prior to the scheduled examination date.
Limited English Proficiency. At this time, INFORMS certification examinations are offered in English only. If
English is not a candidate’s first language, the candidate may request additional testing time by submitting
documentation establishing birth or schooling in a non-English-speaking country. INFORMS must receive this
information at least 45 days prior to the scheduled exam date.
