Remote CBE availability for Mac users using the MacOS 15 (Sequoia) operating system
It will not be possible, at this present time, for students using a Mac device running the MacOS 15 (Sequoia) version of the operating system to take a CBE remotely. MacOS 15 (Sequoia) contains features that are presently incompatible with the systems designed to protect the security and integrity of the exams.
If you have booked a CBE and had planned to use a Mac running this OS, and have no access to a suitable alternative device, you will need to arrange to take your CBE at a test centre. To make this change please call Prometric’s booking team directly on +44 (0)161 868 3122. Their opening hours are 09:00 – 17:00 BST, Monday – Friday.
We do expect to be able to resolve this issue in the medium term but present estimates are that it is unlikely to be resolved before mid-November at the earliest.
