PCAC decision on 4.3.5- Certification shall not be restricted on the grounds of undue financial or other limiting conditions • ABC certification sets a base examination fee, test centers are authorized to charge different fees for the examinations. Candidates at different test centers are thus charged different fees. Access to examinations is limited by the variability of exam fees resulting in a potential restriction on the grounds of undue financial or other limiting conditions. 4.1.1 - policies and procedures and their administrations shall be fair and equitable to all candidates
