Participants will be given two hours in toto to attempt the Final Assessment. However, every question in the Examination will have a fixed allotted time period, within which the Participant will have to submit the answer for that particular question. The surplus time in attempting any question will not be carried forward to other questions.

If there is some error with the internet connection or the computer Participant is using, he / she will be able to resume the Examination from the same question at any later point in time. However, this feature can only be availed up to three times by Participants.

Unlike typical examinations, the Final Assessment will not be conducted on a fixed date, time or place. Final Assessment will be online and can be taken by the Participants from anywhere. First Attempt of the Final Assessment can be taken by the Participants on any date during the 2nd month (from the Start of the Batch) as per their convenience. The results of the Examination will be communicated to the Participant within one week of the successful completion of the Final Assessment.

If the Participant scores more than 50% marks in the first attempt, he/she will be awarded with a Digital Certificate of Course Completion, which can be verified at our Website. On the other hand, if the Participant fails to clear the examination in first attempt, he/she will be provided with two more attempts. The link to second attempt will be available to Participants immediately after the link of First Attempt expires, i.e., after the 2nd month from the starting date of the Batch.
