AVIXA CTS Certification Exam Q&A
AVIXA Certified Technology Specialist is an official AVIXA exam, registered under the code CTS. A passing score earns you the AVIXA Certification certification, positioned at the Associate level. The credential also connects to CTS-D (Certified Technology Specialist - Design), CTS-I (Certified Technology Specialist - Installation), so it can anchor a broader certification path. Because AVIXA designs its exams around real job tasks, holding this certification signals practical skill rather than memorized theory.
Candidates face 115 questions inside a 150 minutes window on the AVIXA Certified Technology Specialist exam. That ratio leaves little slack, which is why pacing deserves as much practice as the content itself. Learn to budget your minutes, park stubborn questions instead of wrestling them, and rehearse under a real clock: a few timed runs in the ActualCollection test engine will make the official time limit feel routine rather than threatening.
The passing bar for AVIXA Certified Technology Specialist is set at 350 / 500, and registering for the exam officially costs $490 USD. There is no reduced price for a second try: fail, and you pay $490 USD in full again. That makes honest self-testing the cheapest insurance available, so hold off on booking until your ActualCollection practice scores sit clearly above the passing line, attempt after attempt.
