Examination Conflicts

An examination conflict occurs when a student is scheduled to write two examinations on

the same day. If this occurs, you must choose to request a deferral of either exam, as per

the Examination Deferral policy.

Students are encouraged to take only one CGA course or exam during a given session.

Students wishing to take more than one course or examination in a session may do so, but

are cautioned that the resulting workload may be too demanding and conflicts could arise.

Those attempting more than one course or examination in a session should note that the

Students who reside outside a 150- kilometre radius from a regular examination centre

may qualify to write their examination in a special examination centre. The major

determinant for approving a special examination centre request is the distance a student

resides from an established regular examination centre. Students residing within a 150-

kilometre radius of a regular examination centre must attend that regular examination

centre. Consideration will be given to normal travel conditions during the year and

special examination centres within the 150-kilometre radius will be permitted when

conditions warrant. Students applying for a special examination centre must arrange for

their own examination invigilator. The examination invigilator must be a CGA member

in good standing and must not be a friend or relative. Please remember, CGA-BC

examination date. Students identified by CGA-BC as being eligible to apply for a special

examination centre will be provided with a Special Centre Application Form that must be

returned by the specified deadline. Students who do not complete and return the form by

the deadline will be assigned to the nearest regular examination centre.

Students who reside in the following chapter regions may be eligible for special centre

status at each examination period:

 Southern Vancouver Island (other),

 Upper Vancouver Island (other),

 Kamloops – Cariboo (other),
