GBMC-PILOT-0.9 · draft rules

The same clear and verifiable rules for every candidate.

These rules apply to the closed GBMC pilot cohort. The session invitation restates the applicable conditions and any authorised accommodation.

Version 0.9 · 24 September 2026
01

Assessment format

40 shuffled multiple-choice questions, 45 minutes, one attempt and a 70% pilot passing score. Results are reviewed before any decision.

02

Identity & access

Accounts are personal. Candidates must use their real identity and protect their access. A proportionate identity check may take place before certification.

03

Permitted resources

Unless the invitation states otherwise, the exam is individual and closed-resource: no documents, search engines, messaging, human assistance or AI tools. Approved accessibility accommodations are communicated before the session.

04

Conduct & integrity

Candidates must not copy, photograph, record, distribute or reconstruct questions; communicate with third parties; use another account; or attempt to bypass the platform. Anomalies are reviewed before sanctions.

05

Technical incident

Candidates report incidents immediately and do not restart without instruction. Technical logs are reviewed. Reopening is granted only when a documented incident may have affected fairness.

06

Result & decision

An automated score alone is not certification. An authorised manager reviews identity, result, evidence and anomalies. The badge is awarded manually and remains valid for 24 months.

07

Failure & retake

No retake is automatic. Result review and remediation may be required before further authorisation. Conditions are communicated in writing.

08

Appeals

A reasoned request may be filed within 15 calendar days of the decision. Someone who did not make the initial decision reviews it and provides a documented response.

09

Suspension or revocation

Proven fraud, a material error or misleading use may lead to suspension or revocation. The holder is informed of the reason and may use the appeal process.

These rules are published in pre-production for transparency. They require legal and operational approval before commercial launch.
