I got a credit in Mod1. That's 4 modules done now.

That is hardly a surprise but well done anyway; bet you are pleased to have finished the set. Also shows how sensible it is to pace yourself appropriately taking into account one's other work and family responsibilities.

Definitely agreed it is a help as after 4 months many will forget; the downside is that the membership numbers are nothing like as anonymous and so it opens the possibility of other people getting to know before the candidate which isn't good.

Absolutely. I could probably look up (if I were determined) the licence number for every designer in my company and they are the same where people have membership and licence. I hope candidates will learn and keep their numbers next year.

And version 2 also show the Near Miss categories; again out of line with what typically gets published in IRSE News.  I guess the move to Issue 2 may have been in desperate response to the number of candidates asking IRSE because they'd forgotten their candidate number, but it does seem to have been implemented in haste without too much thought.  Oh the perils of the late mod!

Any candidate's sponsor is bound to know their IRSE membership number and as you say the licence numbers are readily available- often Test Plans contain listings of all relevant testers working on a project.

Seems as if the results have been removed. No explanation.

Congrats Dorothy.

It is there Jerry, but the link above must have changed.
PJW - version 1 had the near misses also.

Apologies now I have looked more closely you are correct re the N appearing on the version that I downloaded, however I am not the only one who thought that they weren't shown on the first time we checked.....

I opened the IRSE website (although the link from this exam site seems not to work at the moment) then clicked on membership and it is on the right.
But if I clicked on IRSE exam from the membership menu that page does not load.
Something appears rather broken.

The have changed the name of the page from irseexam.aspx to Exam.aspx so I have corrected the link on the menu.
