Once the intern has completed their test prep, they can then go back in and request their exam.  

 

Please Note:   All test prep that was completed prior to January 1st, 2023 will have credit removed from the intern’s portal, and the intern will be required to complete the test prep again, for additional test approval attempts.  

 

Bug Fixes for TX FBES

Previously interns using Safari or Firefox were having trouble entering a start date and end date through their portal for in-person FBEs.  This has been corrected and interns should no longer have this issue.
