Once the above schedule has been completed the LIBF will then be able to offer all its qualifications, examined by multiple-choice exam, via test centres and remote invigilation; providing students with the flexibility to sit their exams when and where they wish. This will become a core part of the LIBF’s offering and going forward all students will have the choice to sit their exams from home or via a test centre.
Written and typed exams
Alongside the qualifications that are assessed by multiple-choice exams, the following qualifications that have a written/typed assessment will be made available via remote invigilation, so students can sit their exam from home.

Exam results at Pearson test centres
The LIBF has previously provided students with their exam results at the Pearson VUE test centres, issuing a printed results sheet, as soon as they have completed their exam. However, due to enhanced safety measures at the test centres and a change in technology, results will no longer be provided at the test centres.
Instead students can access their result within three to four hours via their MyLIBF account. LIBF said it appreciated this has increased the amount of time it takes for students to receive their result but they will still get these on the same day and this is a safer and greener option compared to before.
