so ... it turns out ...

That in order to get on the list of Certified Professionals you have to pass both the associate and professional exam, well who knew. Conversely, if you pass the associates exam you immediately get onto the list of Certified Associates. Damn.

Well, then I clearly need to take the associates exam and then I'm going to be listed, that seems straightforward.

I sit down to take the associates exam, requiring 22/30 for a pass, shouldn't be too difficult. I'm going through the questions, some involve a bit of hard thinking and some memory skills, especially regarding dialogs and such like. I finish up and nervously click the end button, wah, 21/30 and a fail. Double Damn.

So I click the close button, the test disappears and the interface for the piece of software for which I'm being tested is sitting staring back at me. Essentially, I've just sat an open-book exam without opening the book and failed by the narrowest of margins. Triple Damn.
