Certification testing for the CIAC-Certified Management Associate designation consists of:
- Four (4) Objective Assessments
The assessments correspond to the four competency domains and each consist of 60-80 multiple choice, scenario-based questions. Testing is delivered online, administered by a CIAC-registered Proctor in a secure environment at the candidate's workplace or a CIAC-approved testing facility. Candidates typically test in one competency domain per testing session; however, any two or more of the assessments may be completed in a single testing session. Certification requires a minimum 70% pass score on each of the four assessments. Candidates are allowed to retest if a passing score is not achieved. Upon request, CIAC provides candidates with feedback to assist retesting preparation.

Upon successful completion of all certification testing requirements, candidates are awarded a Certificate of CIAC Certification that formally recognizes achievement of the CIAC-Certified Management Associate designation.
Recertification is required every three years to maintain an active CIAC-Certified Management Associate designation.
Candidates are encouraged to complete Self-Assessments as the first step in the certification process. The Self-Assessments enable candidates to compare their current knowledge and skills against job role competency requirements to identify areas where training and/or job experience may be necessary to ensure successful certification testing. The Self-Assessments can also be used to identify a candidate's strongest competency area(s) for determining a logical starting point for training and/or certification testing. They can also be used to to conduct a team gap analysis, e.g., to identify the collective competency strengths and weaknesses of a call center management team. The Self-Assessments are provided to candidates free of charge after purchase of CIAC Certification.
