SEP Program

The Supplemental Examiner Point (SEP) Program rewards member companies whose staff volunteer as Supplemental Examiners (SEs) for ACI Certification exams. We value your time and commitment to supporting others in achieving ACI certification. In addition to providing lunches and gift cards to individual SEs, the SEP Program allows companies to earn points redeemable for ACI exam registrations.

• Earning: Each SE earns 1 SEP per session they assist with (exam or training).
• Expiration: SEPs expire after 2 years.
• Eligibility: All companies (member and non-member) can earn SEPs, but only CRMCA & CSSGA member companies can redeem them.

Member companies can use SEPs to cover the following ACI exam registrations (based on Denver pricing):

• Concrete Field Testing Technician—Grade I: 3 SEPs
• Concrete Strength Testing Technician: 3 SEPs
• Aggregate Testing Technician—Level 1: 4 SEPs

Note: For non-Denver exams, any price difference must be paid by credit card or ACH at registration.

Please keep in mind that SEP redemption requests must be submitted AFTER an exam opens for registration and BEFORE the registration is entered in the system and paid for.

If the above timing requirements are satisfied, please email aci@coloradocaa.org to request redemption with the following information:

• Company Name
• Registrant First & Last Name
• Registrant Email
• Exam Type
• Exam Date

As long as the request satisfies these requirements and your company has enough SEPs available to redeem, your request will be approved and a coupon code will be issued.

With your code in hand, register your examinee through the standard online registration process, making sure to enter the provided code in the Coupon Code field at the bottom of the registration page.

• Commitment: Register only for sessions you can attend, as we rely heavily on SEs.
• Flexibility: Modify registrations anytime to add or remove dates as your schedule allows.
• Cancellations: Notify us promptly at aci@coloradocaa.org if you cannot assist, so we can arrange a replacement.

Are workbooks included with SEP registrations?
No, workbooks must be purchased separately via the CRMCA website.

Can non-member companies participate?
All companies earn SEPs, but only CRMCA & CSSGA members can redeem them. Non-members who join can redeem previously earned active SEPs.

Can SEPs cover retake registrations?
Yes, but redeeming 3 or 4 SEPs for a retake forfeits the unused portion of the full exam value.

Can SEPs be used for workbooks or non-ACI events?
No, SEPs are only valid for the specified ACI exam registrations.
