CSP candidate center · scheduling
Book your CSP exam through the correct route
There is no SafePath booking system and there is no fixed annual CSP exam date. BCSP authorizes the exam; Pearson VUE provides the appointment inventory.
The important part
Do not expect Pearson to show you a bookable CSP appointment before BCSP authorization. Pearson's official BCSP page says candidates must first apply through BCSP, be notified of eligibility, and pay the examination authorization fee. BCSP then provides the Pearson scheduling path through My Profile.
Correct sequence
BCSP → authorization → Pearson
Receive eligibility
BCSP must review the application and notify you that you are eligible to sit.
Pay exam authorization
Purchase the CSP examination authorization. BCSP currently lists $350 for a single CSP examination; verify the current fee before payment.
Open Pearson from BCSP
BCSP says scheduling is completed through the Pearson VUE single-sign-on option in your BCSP My Profile.
Choose location/date/time
Select an available Pearson Professional Center appointment. The actual seat availability is live and can change.
Keep confirmation
Save the Pearson appointment confirmation and follow the test-center identification/security instructions.
Why dates are not listed here
Your exam date is an appointment, not a yearly event
BCSP says you have one year from approval of your application to sit for the certification exam, and its CSP page directs candidates to schedule an available Pearson appointment. Therefore SafePath should not publish a fabricated “September 2026 CSP exam date.” Your actual date/time/location must come from the authorized Pearson scheduling flow.
Plan ahead
BCSP recommends scheduling early to improve the chance of getting the preferred appointment.
Retake spacing
BCSP states another appointment must be at least six weeks from the last exam attempt.
Live availability
Center, date and time are controlled by Pearson's current inventory.
Worldwide availability
Choose from the locations offered to you
Pearson VUE operates an international test-center network, but CSP availability is specific to the BCSP program, your authorization and live appointment inventory. After authorization, launch Pearson from BCSP My Profile and search the countries, cities, dates and times currently available to you.

Check live inventory
A public Pearson location listing does not guarantee that the center currently offers the CSP.
Confirm before travel
Use the appointment confirmation for the exact address, identification rules and test-day instructions.
