Citrix Education regularly monitors the performance of all exams to identify candidate violations of the Citrix Candidate Conduct Policy and ensure the validity of exam results. During the monitoring of exam performance, Citrix Education may classify scores as indeterminate when aberrancies in performance are detected for which there is no satisfactory explanation. A classification of indeterminate results can stem from a breach in the Candidate Conduct Policy or from other factors. If scores are classified as indeterminate, candidates will be advised of options for retaking the exam. Scores classified as indeterminate will not be reported to anyone other than the candidate and will be removed from Citrix’s Certification Manager/I7 database. If a breach of the Candidate Conduct Policy has contributed to the classification of indeterminate of results, Citrix Education may also take additional action as described below.
Notification of Violations of Policy and Possible Sanctions
If Citrix Education determines that any candidate has violated the terms and agreements included in this policy, written notice of the violations and applicable sanctions will be sent to the candidate. Candidates will have an opportunity to provide relevant information to the evaluation of the allegation. It is the candidate’s sole responsibility to ensure that their current contact information, including address and email address, are stored in Citrix’s Certification Manager/I7 which can be accessed at http://citrixcertmanager.com.
Appeals Process
After a candidate has received written notice of violation and applicable sanctions from Citrix, the candidate will have thirty (30) calendar days to file a written request for an appeal pursuant to the Citrix Candidate Appeals Process.
