Dear Candidate,

Due to concerns about the health and safety of candidates in the era of COVID-19, we recently announced our decision to postpone GARP’s global May 2020 Financial Risk Manager (FRM®) and Energy Risk Professional (ERP®) Exams. We are now ready to announce the revised exam schedule.

May 16, 2020 Exams around the world are rescheduled for October 24, 2020. In addition, the previously scheduled November 21, 2020 exams date will be held as planned, given the information we have at the present time.

Any candidate registered for a May Exam will be automatically enrolled in an October 24 Exam, but can defer to our second regularly scheduled exam date of the year on November 21 at no additional cost. GARP will allow candidates to make this change using the candidate portal during the two-week window of April 1-15.

I hope this provides you the certainty you need to continue your course of study and plans for career growth. Our top priority is and always will be your health and safety. We understand that you have dedicated much time and effort in preparing for your Exams, and we are doing everything we can to offer our FRM and ERP Exams with minimum disruption.

Please refer to the FAQs on our website for more information. Connect with us on our social media channels for the latest updates.

On behalf of all of us at GARP, we offer our heartfelt best wishes to you and your families.

Sincerely,

Richard Apostolik
President and CEO, GARP
