FAQs
Find test taker questions about APICS online registration.
Getting Started
Visit the APICS website at www.apics.org to review or download a registration bulletin.
How you register depends on when you last tested or registered. Two paths are available. Choose the scenario that applies to you.
- Tested or registered anytime SINCE 2003?
If you had a reservation for OR sat for an APICS exam ON OR AFTER February 24, 2003, you already have everything you need to log-in. See FAQ: What are the steps if I registered for a test scheduled for 2003 or later and either took the exam or cancelled the exam?
- Never Tested or Registered?
If you have never taken or registered for an APICS exam you will need to take a moment to provide “Candidate Information” BEFORE you log-in. See FAQ: What are the steps if I tested BEFORE 2003 or have never tested?
Steps to Register

Your login ID is “APICS” followed by your 7-digit APICS ID number.
Your password is your 7-digit APICS ID number. (If your APICS ID number is only 6 digits you will need to add a zero before the six digit number. For example, if your APICS ID number is 222222, your log-in will be APICS0222222 and your password will be 0222222. If your APICS ID number is already 7 digits, you do not need to add a zero.)
