CeMAP Online Exam Day: What to Expect
5 min read · facts checked 11 Oct 2026
CeMAP has no fixed exam dates. You sit each unit online through Walbrook's Brightspace platform whenever you are ready, under remote invigilation, with no need to book in advance.
Before you start
- Use a laptop or webcam you can pick up: you will be asked to do a full 360-degree scan of the room before the exam starts.
- Choose a quiet, private space and clear your desk.
- Check your equipment and internet connection beforehand.
- Read Walbrook's current candidate guidance on Brightspace for the full rules on what is allowed.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need to book a CeMAP exam?
No. CeMAP exams are on demand on Walbrook's Brightspace platform with remote invigilation, so you can sit whenever you are ready.
Do I sit CeMAP at a Pearson VUE test centre?
No. Walbrook's fees and assessment page says you take each unit online, at any time, with no booking required and remote invigilation. A guide that tells you to book a test centre is out of date.
What happens at the start of a remotely invigilated CeMAP exam?
You are asked to pick up your laptop or webcam and do a full 360-degree scan of the room, so make sure your equipment can be moved easily.
