CTB December 2014 HSC and March 2015 Exam
 
The Exam is a four-hour multiple choice exam covering three sections: basic business principles applied to brokerage; traffic management and contracting for transportation services; and legal and regulatory issues. To become CTB certified, you must pass each of the three sections. Candidates who do not pass section(s) may register at the appropriate member or non-member rate to re-take the failed section(s) during the next scheduled exam date. Candidates have the option of taking all three sections together or separately; however, applicants need to be aware that all three (3) sections of the exam must be passed within three (3) consecutive testing cycles of taking the first exam.  Applicants may transfer to the next exam date; however, this will count as one (1) attempt in the three (3) test cycles. The exam is administered three times a year.

The examination fee is non-refundable.   TIA may in its sole discretion approve transfer of the exam fee one time to the next scheduled exam (less the Certification Application Fee) only if (a) a written request accompanied by an explanation of the basis for the transfer request satisfactory to TIA, is received by TIA two business days prior to the exam date, and (b) written approval is given by TIA to the requestor before the exam for which the transfer is requested.

Exam results are scored on a pass/fail basis.

Candidates will receive their results the week following the exam. (Exam scores will not be given out by phone; all candidates will be notified of their results via email.)

Candidates who do not pass section(s) may register to re-take the failed section(s) during the next scheduled exam date. Partial pass scores (pass one or two sections only) are valid for three (3) consecutive test cycles which includes the initial exam. Candidates must pass all three (3) sections of the exam within three (3) consecutive test cycles which includes the initial exam.

Exam fee is $125 per section for members and $175 per section for non-members.
