What the exam looks like.

90 MIN · 30 MC · 8 WRITTEN
01 · CHECK-IN
Camera & mic gate
Real browser permissions. You will be denied entry without a live camera feed and a working microphone — same as a real testing center.
02 · ALVY
AI proctor sidebar
Real-time face detection via face-api.js. Multiple faces, tab switches, paste events and gaze-off-screen all cost integrity points.
03 · INTEGRITY
Live integrity score
Start at 100. Hit 50 and the attempt is disqualified server-side — your remaining session ends, and there's a 24hr cooldown before you can retry.
04 · WRITTEN
In your own voice
Eight written prompts. Paste is blocked and logged. AI-generated or copy-pasted answers result in permanent program removal — Matt reads them.
05 · GRADED
Cross-referenced grading
Trade journal entries are cross-checked against your real trade history. Vague answers and ghost trades get flagged in the grade queue.
06 · ISSUED
Verifiable certificate
On pass: a public certificate page (RIAP-Lx-YYYY-NNNN) signed by Matt Rinaudo, with OG metadata that previews cleanly on LinkedIn.

DISCLOSURE
This is not an accredited credential.
RIAP is a private certificate issued by Matt Rinaudo through his community program. It is not an accredited financial-industry license (Series 7, CFA, etc.), it is not a substitute for licensed financial advice, and nothing on this site constitutes investment advice. The certificate functions like a fellowship credential — it tells employers and peers that you put in the time and passed a real exam, not that you are a registered representative. Submitting AI-generated responses or attempting to game the proctor results in permanent program removal and forfeits all hours and prior certificates.
