| | |

|Exam Cost: |Per Exam Voucher: $47.00 (if purchased through Certiport) |

| |Site License: $3,250.00 (if purchased through Certiport) |

| | |

| |Sites may purchase MTA Exams via a Microsoft Select Plus Agreement through one of the Large Account Resellers |

| |(LARs) on the Georgia State Contract list. The Microsoft Estimated Resell Price (ERP) is $2,741.00 for the site |

| |license (inclusive of 250 exams) but this price can’t be guaranteed as the actual pricing must come from the LARs.|

| |The LARs on the state contract list include Dell, CDW-G, or SHI. (See contact information for LARs under “Testing |

| |Agency Contact” section.) This would entail the school system working directly with the LAR to identify the |

| |quantity needed, requesting a quote from the LAR, receiving the quote, then issuing a PO via the system’s |

| |individual process. Please remember that there is no statewide contract for MTA exams, so if the system chooses |

| |not to order exams through Certiport, pricing will be determined by the chosen LAR. |

| | |

| |NOTE: Regardless of where exams are purchased, the actual testing process will be dispensed through Certiport. |

|Duration of Exam: |45-50 minutes |
