Purchase Online Voucher Only

ServSafe Mgr Certification Online Exam Voucher, SSONLINEX – Electronic Voucher

We have been asked if one book can be purchased for a small business and all employees study from one book. While that may be possible if you allow your employees enough time to study, it will not allow all employees to take the test online. EACH STUDENT must have their unique Online Exam Voucher. You can purchase this and have the code immediately emailed to you.

ServSafe Mgr Certification Online Exam Voucher, SSONLINEX – Electronic Voucher

Please allow enough time for delivery of the book and yourself at least one week to read the book and prepare ahead of time. Buying the book the night before will not work and you may fail the exam. If you come to class and do not have the online access code, you will not be allowed to take the test at the end of the day.

I Can’t Read English Very Well

If you find that taking the exam in a different language will help you pass the test, we can accommodate that request. Online exams are available in English, Spanish, or Chinese. Note: For the Spanish-language and Chinese-language exams, the questions are in the respective language. However, the online navigation instructions are in English. We usually find it best to take the test in paper. All other exams, and if you can’t use a computer, would require taking a paper exam and it is your responsibility to order a paper exam answer sheet. Allow 2-weeks advanced notice for a paper exam.
