wheres my candidate number?

Post by petermn »

Hi Guys.
I just took my internediate exam on Friday. When I got home I cleared my bag of any notes/paperwork etc as I hoped I wouldnt need it anymore - - - but as I log onto the ofcom website I see reference to a 'candidate number' which looks like it needs entering to check if I passed.
As you may know, an examiner cant issue a pass slip anymore, the exam paper has to be sent to RSGB for optical marking. I dont think anyone at my exam was too sure of the procedure other than sending the exam paper off for marking.
Does anybody know if I should have been issued a candidate number after the exam or will RSGB or OFCOM send me one?
Thanks for your comments.
Peter

Just to answer my own question incase others are wondering. The RSGB tell me that they inform students officially of pass or fail via post. If its a pass the 'candidate number' will be on the pass certificate. Students then apply for thier licence by entering the number on the OFCOM website .

It's the same candidate number as on your foundation stuff.
