September 5th: We understand that many of you are questioning whether or not the exams will take place in October and November. As of right now, it looks like there is no change to the plans for the exams to move forward. We received the information below from GARP:
"With the school year beginning and the last quarter of 2020 upon us, I understand that you may be getting questions from candidates about whether GARP’s Financial Risk Manager (FRM) and Energy Risk Professional (ERP) Exams will proceed in October and November as planned. We are closely monitoring conditions in the 53 countries where we give the exams and, at this point, we are planning to continue as planned in most locations. However, if local conditions change, we may have to postpone some exams to early 2021. Such postponement would only occur in locations where conditions warrant.
If we have to postpone the exams in a location, we will alert candidates immediately with the new testing date and options to defer their exam to another period, if the new date is not possible for them. This is similar to the steps we took when postponing the May 2020 Exams to October. We are also creating a new alerts page on our website, garp.org. I will share that with you when it goes live."
GARP also emailed us with this Update page. They have stated that they will be posting all updates here: https://www.garp.org/#!/important-notices.

Due to local rules regarding COVID-19, candidates in China planning to take the Financial Risk Manager (FRM®) and Energy Risk Professional (ERP®) Exams on October 24, 2020 are required to fill out a Health Statement. Candidates who do not complete the form will not be able to sit for the Exam. Candidates must print the form, complete it in its entirety, bring it with them on exam day, and give it to their proctor during check-in.
September 5th: We understand that many of you are questioning whether or not the exams will take place in October and November. As of right now, it looks like there is no change to the plans for the exams to move forward. We received the information below from GARP:
"With the school year beginning and the last quarter of 2020 upon us, I understand that you may be getting questions from candidates about whether GARP’s Financial Risk Manager (FRM) and Energy Risk Professional (ERP) Exams will proceed in October and November as planned. We are closely monitoring conditions in the 53 countries where we give the exams and, at this point, we are planning to continue as planned in most locations. However, if local conditions change, we may have to postpone some exams to early 2021. Such postponement would only occur in locations where conditions warrant.
If we have to postpone the exams in a location, we will alert candidates immediately with the new testing date and options to defer their exam to another period, if the new date is not possible for them. This is similar to the steps we took when postponing the May 2020 Exams to October. We are also creating a new alerts page on our website, garp.org. I will share that with you when it goes live."
GARP also emailed us with this Update page. They have stated that they will be posting all updates here: https://www.garp.org/#!/important-notices.
