Exam Fee

• Base AutoOps+ exam fee: The U.S. list price is USD 390 before applicable taxes; regional prices and offers can differ and are shown during checkout. This is the main component of the AutoOps+ certification cost.
• Taxes: VAT, GST, or other local taxes may apply and can change the final AutoOps+ certification cost.
