DASCIN® Service Automation Framework Certification

If you are sitting the examination through an Accredited Training Organization, the cost of the exam is generally included in the course fee. Please ensure you confirm with your training provider that the exam is included in these costs. 

If you have selected a self-study option, please note that APMG-International uses a global pricing model for all exams. The examination fees for candidates attending a public exam centre are determined by the location where the exams are administered.

To find out the costs in your region, please refer to our examination portal or contact the APMG-International Service Desk (servicedesk@apmg-international.com).

Most, if not all, of our certifications come with at least one Sample Exam to help participants prepare for their exam. Access to the Sample Exams can be located on our website.

Some certifications do not require training in order to take the exam however, for most certifications, training is advised. 

For some certifications individuals also have the option to self-study in preparation for the exam and, when they are ready, can even take the exam from the comfort of their home or office.

You can find details of our self-study exams, available to purchase, via our public exams portal.
