ONLC’s Exam Pass Guarantee
ONLC’s CompTIA certification classes come with an Exam Pass Guarantee. What that essentially means is that we want to make sure that everyone is taking advantage of the Practice Test that we are providing and achieve a score of 85% or better in Certification Mode prior to us releasing the initial exam voucher.
The practice test is ordered upon request. Once you provide a copy of the course Certificate of Completion along with lab completion documentation we will email the web-based practice test. After achieving a score of 85% or better, email proof to [email protected] and we will go ahead and release the exam voucher to you within 24 business hours. Should you fail the exam on the first attempt, after submitting your authorized exam score and additional study, we will then provide a second voucher. However, should you decide not to take the practice exam or to take the exam without first achieving the 85% in certification mode, the Exam Pass is null and void. Please read through our:
Exam Pass Guarantee

Additional Notes Regarding CompTIA Certification Exams
As with most professional IT certifications, many additional hours of study are required before the class (meeting the prerequisites) and after the class (reviewing exam objectives and practice questions). Expect to spend a significant number of hours studying before you take a CompTIA or any other IT professional exam.
CompTIA certification exams are very rigorous and challenging. By studying using the practice exams, you will greatly improve your chances of passing the actual certification exam the first time.
