IAQG AATT
Successful completion of the 9100 AATT requires that you achieve a passing score on both the Knowledge and Application Examination.

Knowledge Examination:
The 9100/9101 Knowledge Examination is 1.5 hours in length and has sixty multiple-choice questions. Failure to achieve this score will require a full knowledge retake on the online platform. This retake must be completed in a proctored environment.

Failure to achieve the required score on the Knowledge Examination will require a full knowledge retake.

Application Examination:
Your score for the application section is the combined result of your online application exam (2 hours), interview, and the continuous evaluation during the training class (which includes written reports and oral communication of conclusions regarding the case study material). If the auditor score is:

• Equal or Greater than 80%: Auditor pass.
• Between 60%and 79%: Auditor needs to apply to the 9100 Application Retake.
• Below 60%: Auditor needs to re-attempt the full 9100 AATT. A full re-attempt requires that the auditor re-purchase and complete the 9100 Online Component, and attend a new four-day 9100 AATT Instructor-Led Session offered by any approved AATT Training Provider.

The online application retake is 2 hours in length and follows the same structure of the final application examination on the 4th day of the training. This retake must be completed in a proctored environment. If the score is lower than 80%, another retake can be done, up to a maximum of two times. Two failures on the application retake will require applying to the entire four-day training again.
