Experienced users can click here to go directly to on line testing. You will be redirected to the dswfitness.com on-line testing center. ON-LINE TESTING NOTES:
How it Works Click here to "Logon to Online Exams." You will be sent directly to the Desert Southwest Fitness (DSW) on-line testing center. Once there, if you have not previously registered for a DSW online exam, click on "If you have not logged on before, sign up here." Type in your personal profile information and click "Sign Up." Next click on all your certifying organization(s), and click "Continue." If you have previously registered for DSW on-line testing, type in your email address and password, click "Logon Now." Update your personal information and the organizations through which you are certified. Scroll to the bottom and click "Take Online Exam." Type in your exam number, which is located at the top of printed test form included with your program. Type the entire exam number, which includes a two to four letter code and a series of numbers, e.g., PPR001734. Do not insert dashes or extra spaces in the exam number. Click "Continue." Take the exam and click "Submit Exam." The computer will automatically score your exam. If you pass (you need to score 85% or above), you will be prompted to complete and submit your Course Evaluation and to print your validation form (certificate of completion). If you do not pass the exam, you will be given an opportunity to retake the exam immediately or at a later date. If you have another exam you wish to take, simply click "Back to Online Exams" and resume with #5 above. If you are finished with the online exams, click "Log off Online Exams."

Frequently Asked Questions Can I take an online exam without first purchasing the course materials? No. You must first register for the course and receive your course materials. Once you have completed the course requirements and are ready to complete the exam, logon to the DSW test site and enter the "exam number" which is located on the test form included with your SFA training program. I've tried to logon and the computer tells me my exam number is invalid. What do I do? Make sure you have entered the two to four letter code followed by the series of numbers that are stamped on the upper right hand corner of the Easy Track Form. Do not insert any dashes or spaces in the exam number. If your exam number (including the letters and numbers) does not register as a valid exam number, please contact SFA and we will resolve the situation so that you will be able to proceed with the online exam registration process. Do I have to input my personal profile and organization each time I want to take an online exam? No. You only register your profile once. You will be required to remember your email address and password to enter the online exam module. Once you've logged on, you can update your profile and organization information. If I leave my test (or am disconnected by my internet service provider) before it is completed will the computer save my answers for later completion? No. Once you exit the module, you will have to logon and start the exam from the beginning. I took my exam, was told I passed, but I did not get the opportunity to print my certificate. After submitting your exam answers, you will be prompted to complete a short Course Evaluation. Once you have submitted the Evaluation, you will be given the opportunity to print your validation form / certificate. If you do not print your certificate at this time, you will not be able to do so at a later date. After successfully completing the exam can I exit the computer and come back later to print my validation form / certificate? No. You must print your certificate during the session it is offered. If you cannot print your certificate at that time, please contact exams@dswfitness.com or 520-292-0011 and we will mail a copy to you. Helpful hints: Use your printed exam as your original copy, and enter your answers online from the original. Before clicking to print your Certificate, make sure you printer is on and it has paper. |
