Exam sessions are conducted by Certified Examiners under the direction and guidelines in the the FCC Commercial Examination Process.
There is a charge for taking these exams.
The exam fee is set by the COLEM. The agency the FCC has enabled to issue these licenses.
All Fees are paid in cash directly to the examiner administering the session. No third parties.
