Known Issue (occasional)
Make sure you are on the correct exam website. Some users have landed on the wrong site for their exam booking. The correct URL is https://www.webassessor.com/mdrao. If you do not see the MDRAO logo and there is only one exam option showing “KCP Certification” (as seen below), your tester account was not properly assigned to the MDRAO. You will have to create a another new account through the proper website, https://www.webassessor.com/mdrao.
