General Testing Information

The Utah Division of Professional Licensing (DOPL) has contracted with Prov, Inc. to administer the Utah Facial Hair Removal Integrated Competency Assessment (ICA).

The purpose of this bulletin is to provide you with information about taking your permit assessment with the State of Utah.

Prov is not authorized to make the determination of which assessment candidates must take. If a candidate is unsure which assessment is needed for their profession, the candidate must resolve this question prior to scheduling. If candidates have questions regarding which exam(s) to take, please check with your school, or review the information found on the DOPL website.

Examination Categories and Cost

Candidates seeking a Permit in the State of Utah must successfully complete the Integrated Competency Assessment. This single assessment evaluates both knowledge and applied skill, which are intertwined throughout the testing process.

The total cost for the assessment is $105 per attempt, whether you are testing for the first time or if you are retaking the examination.

How to Register and Schedule

Testing with Prov

Your Integrated Competency Assessment (ICA) will be administered by computer at one of Prov’s testing centers but includes a physical demonstration of skills as part of the assessment. Prov’s testing system is easy to use and requires no specific computer experience to complete the assessment.

Watch a demonstration video of Prov’s testing system

Prior to Registration

All candidates must create a UtahID before registering for their examination. The same email address must be used when:

Creating the UtahID account
Registering for the examination with Prov
Submitting the permit application with the Division of Professional Licensing (DOPL)

Using different email addresses will prevent examination scores from linking to the candidate’s UtahID account and application record. This will cause delays in processing the permit application.

Candidates are strongly encouraged to use a personal email address when creating their UtahID account. Do not use a work or school email address, as this email will remain the primary point of contact with the Division throughout your career, including permit renewal notices and other important communications.

Please see “Proof of Identity” section for more information on acceptable forms of ID.

Test Day Rules and Procedures

Check-in Deadline

The doors to each testing center will open at least 15 minutes before all scheduled appointments to allow candidates to check in and be seated. You should plan to arrive early to make sure you are seated before the assessment begins.

Important: If you arrive late, AND the session has already begun, you will be turned away, forfeit all fees, and must reschedule for a future assessment session.

Proof of Identity

You must show government-issued photo identification. The photo ID must be current and valid. Additionally, the name on your ID must match exactly with the name you provided to Prov at time of scheduling. Please make any corrections to your name prior to your scheduled appointment.

Examples of Valid Photo-Bearing ID:

Driver’s license card
Passport
Military ID
Permanent resident card
Tribal ID

Temporary Utah Driver’s License: A temporary Utah Driver’s License (paper copy) by itself is not sufficient proof of identity. If you currently have a temporary driver’s license, you must also present your recently EXPIRED original driver’s license. Together your new temporary driver’s license and your expired original license can be used to verify your identity. If you only have the temporary copy or the expired license, you will be refused entry.

You will also be required to sign a test center log and will be photographed by the test center staff. If you cannot produce a valid government-issued photo ID, refuse to participate in signing the test center log, or refuse to be photographed, you will be dismissed from the testing center and forfeit all testing fees for that testing session.

If you do not have a photo ID, you may still present a valid State driver’s license without a photo or a State ID card without a photo that is issued by the DMV.

You will be refused entry by the testing center staff if:

Your name on the testing roster and name on ID do not match exactly
You do not produce a valid government-issued photo ID
You refuse to sign the test center log
You refuse to be photographed

If refused at the testing center, you will be dismissed and forfeit all fees for that testing session.

Prohibited Items

No cameras, recorders, cell phones, computers, pagers, tablet computers, music players, smart watches, radios, electronic games, or any other electronic devices are allowed in the testing room. Talking and smoking are not allowed in the testing room.

Additionally, other personal items such as purses, notebooks, references or study materials, briefcases, backpacks, wallets, pens, pencils, other writing devices, food or any other items should be placed in secure storage at the testing facility.

For assessment security you may also be asked to remove articles of clothing that may pose a security risk such as:

Bulky clothing, scarves, hoodies, shawls, vests, jackets, coats, and so forth
Hats or headgear not associated with religious reasons
Any other clothing or device that may be interpreted as having the potential to compromise the testing process

Warning: We ask that you leave all unauthorized materials in your car or vehicle. If you are caught using unauthorized materials during your assessment, these materials will be confiscated, your assessment will be terminated with fees forfeited, and the Division will be notified of your dismissal from the exam. The Division may select to impose additional sanctions.

Visitor Policy

No one other than the candidate will be allowed in the testing room.

Unethical Conduct Policy

Any individual caught giving or receiving assistance during or after the assessment or caught using unauthorized materials during the assessment will be reported directly to the Division of Professional Licensing. Those caught in the act of cheating will be dismissed from the assessment and their results will be frozen. Furthermore, the candidate will forfeit the assessment fees paid.

Finally, anyone caught with test questions in their possession, either during or following the assessment will be prosecuted by Prov for theft of copyrighted testing materials.

Consequences of Violations: If you violate any of these procedures, your assessment session will be stopped, you be graded as failed, you will forfeit your testing fees, and you will be reported to DOPL, which typically ends in a 12-month testing moratorium and possible additional sanctions.

Candidate Civility Expectations

We understand that taking a test can be stressful. Sometimes this stress may cause someone to visibly show their frustration during or after the testing event. While we understand the sources of stress, we find any action that threatens our proctors, examiners, or other candidates to be unacceptable.

If a candidate verbally or physically threatens or assaults any of our proctors, examiners, or other candidates, that candidate may be banned from testing for a time. The candidate’s actions will be reported to DOPL. If any physical harm occurs, civil action may also be taken against the candidate.

Results and Retesting

Results Reporting

Upon completion of an examination, your test will be scored, and you will be provided with an unofficial score result while at the testing center. Official score results for the exam will be sent within three (3) business days following completion of the test.

Retesting Policy

Failed examinations can be retaken as often as is necessary. There is no waiting period, and candidates can schedule a new testing session for the first available testing date. Candidates cannot retake an exam once they have passed that exam unless required by the State of Utah.
