Type

$20 per qualification

No fee may be charged
Answer Notes
Accredited examiners are permitted by Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada (ISED) to charge a fee to recover their actual out-of-pocket costs for administering the exam. This can include expenses for room rentals, photocopying, or mailing materials.
There is no fixed statutory fee (like $20), nor are examiners forced to absorb these costs themselves. The fee must simply be a reasonable recovery of expenses.
