    Download and follow this step by step instructions and then start from training.fema.gov.

    Can you please help me. I lost all the exam answers too .
    I am really bummed.
    What went wrong?
    By the way I went into the exam thru the link on this website.
    PPlease someone advise asap!!

    Default Is FEMA really that easy???

    I have never earned credit through FEMA because I believe that Excelsior either does not accept them or makes it difficult. I stumbled onto the website for the FEMA credits and it appears like each test has a short set of study material and then you pass one short "final exam" and then you are done.

    Just curious...I'm sure this info is out there...just looking for some feedback...

    If Excelsior made it easier, I would get my last 5 free elective credits though FEMA instead of taking the Humanities CLEP...oh well

    Take advantage of it. You paid for the exams with your tax dollars.

    Did you write your answers down? I printed out each exam and completed them manually with a pen. Then I transposed my answers to the website.

    Did you try inputting your answers on the website again? The site will let you know if you already passed the exam.

    do some searches on this site to find out the details but basically if you know how to use the "find" feature these are even easier than you think. You still have to pay X amount of money to get credit for them but yes it really is that easy.

    Each time I take a FEMA I hit ctrl,alt, and prt scr which copies the screen then I paste a copy of the screen onto a word document so that I have the answers. It gives this message almost every single time.

    Been there, done it, easiest 26 credits ever! Use a search function on question keywords to zero in on the answers. Also, make sure you can get the courses transcripted through a school that Excelsior will accept them from. I've read that they won't accept them from TESC anymore, which is where I did mine.

    Good luck!
