Taking the certification
Update [July 1, 2018]: As of 7/1/2018, its stated you need to take the class before testing for the certification. The webassesor link still works and lists the classes for me.
ServiceNow uses onsite testing and at home testing. For the at home testing you'll need a detached webcam.
The cost is $150 per certification.
The CSA and CAD certification has a 90 minute time limit. The rest have a 130 minute time limit.
