Testing Online

When you arrive at a testing location, a proctor will access the online testing site. You will then see the home page of www.natetesting.com.

You will then click on “Take a NATE test online” and enter the Proctor ID number and the Session ID number, both of which you will receive from the proctor. You will then be asked to enter your NATE ID and PIN number to proceed. If this is your first time taking a NATE exam, you will create your own data record in the NATE system.  You will then be able to create a PIN and you will be given a NATE ID. Please make note of both numbers.

After you have completed the test, you will see on screen whether you passed or failed.

What to Bring

  • Photo Identification.
  • Your NATE ID number if you have one.
  • Personal Identification Number (PIN), which you created when you first tested with NATE. Candidates who have already tested with NATE and do not recall their NATE ID or PIN must call the NATE office for assistance. This should be done at least two days before the test. Call toll free: 1.877.420.6283.
  • A non-programmable calculator

What NOT to Bring

  • Blackberries, cell phones, programmable calculator, or other electronic devices.

NOTE: All tests given outside the USA and Canada are only administered electronically.

Good luck!
