Computerized Examinations for AICPCU & IIA EXAMS

Please note that exams can only be written in Bermuda within the exam window dates detailed below.  You may find reference to longer windows on other websites but these are for prometric testing centres, which the BII is not.

These examinations are offered in Bermuda for 2010 and the beginning of 2011 as follows:  

25th May - 11th June, 2010 - registration starts 5th April, 2010

16th August - 27th August, 2010 - registration starts 28th June, 2010

22nd October - 10th November, 2010 - registration starts 7th September, 2010

17th January - 4th February, 2011 - registration starts 22nd November, 2010

*Please go to the individual exam pages for details on registration dates and cost * 

Examination registration is done directly through the BII office between 8:30a.m. and 3:30p.m. during the registration period.  The registration dates are noted in each exam period page.

Fees for the 2010 exams are paid to the BII in $, according to the following scale:

Exams by program                         Regular Registrations        Late Registrations
INS 21,22 & 23                                   $160                        $220
AIC, ARe, ARM, AU, AIT & API        $205                        $265
All Other IIA Exams (not listed above)       $265                        $325
CPCU Exams                                     $270                        $330

There is a late registration fee of $60.  Go to the relevant exam page to view the registration dates (i.e. October/November, January/February etc.).

Effective for the 2011 exam windows, exam fees may increase moderately to reflect the increases that are passed on to ourselves.

Segmented exam delivery is currently available for all INS, AIC, and ARM exams administered at The Bermuda Insurance Insurance. Please note that segment exams are only available for INS, AIC and ARM exams; are given during existing BII testing windows; contain the same questions as full length exams; cover only 3-5 assignments at a time and are only one hour long.  Like the full length exams students can take multiple segments in the same testing window.  See separate page on Segmented Exams for additional information and pricing which differs from the above.
We encourage you to register early.  Whilst examination windows gives students some flexibility in choosing the date and time of the examination, bear in mind that we have a limited number of computers available for each session. Early registrations have a wider choice of dates.

Do not register for examinations unless you are sure that you will be prepared at that time. Cancellations incur penalties. The IIA/CPCU charge $80 to transfer to another exam window and the BII charges an additional $80 administration fee to transfer candidates to another exam window. 

If you cannot take the exam in the testing window for which you originally registered:

  1. Call the BII Tel: 441-295-1596 and request the transfer(s).  Our fee for the transfer process is $80.00 per exam.  This should be done three (3) full working days prior to the date of your exam.
  2. Call the Insurance Institute of America Tel: 610-644-2100 to complete the exam transfer.  Their fee is also $80.00 per exam. This should be done three (3) full working days prior to the date of your exam.
  3. Call the BII on the first day of the applicable exam registration window to choose your exam slot.   Visit our website www.bii.bm for the dates of the exam registration windows.
