In-Person Testing for New Licenses and Upgrades

For many years PAPA has offered exams at our in-person meetings. Please register in advance at: https://hamstudy.org/sessions/lagroup/inperson. Look for “PAPA System” in the listings. Please see our Meetings page for more information on PAPA’s in-person meetings.


Remote (On-Line) Testing for New Licenses and Upgrades

While the pandemic has shuttered many things, PAPA members saw this as an “Opportunity For Success” to develop and deploy Remote Testing. It doesn’t matter where an exam is offered, or where you are – all you need is a connection to the Internet and a camera on your PC. To register for a Remote Exam, please visit: https://hamstudy.org/sessions/remote
