From FASEA - Financial Adviser Standards and Ethics Authority
Following the reimposition of Stage 4 stay at home restrictions for metropolitan Melbourne and the continued closure of exam venues, FASEA advises that Melbourne metropolitan physical location exams will not be offered for the October sitting. Advisers who have registered for a Melbourne physical location exam will have the option to sit the exam online or defer to November or later sitting.
At this stage the Bendigo exam location will continue to be offered to advisers in regional Victoria.
This measure is being taken in light of the evolving COVID-19 pandemic situation in Victoria and in the interests of all involved with the Exam.
The exam administrator (ACER) will contact candidates registered for October Melbourne metropolitan exam sittings to explain their options to sit the exam.
ACER requests candidates ensure their email addresses are up to date in the registration system to facilitate this contact.
FASEA continues to monitor and will act upon the advice of the Federal and State Governments.
