Individuals may also earn eligibility to take the CASBO CBO exam by completing a full CBO training program offered by an approved professional development provider, such as:
- FCMAT CBO Mentor Program
- USC Rossier School of Education: Certificate in School Business Management Program

Throughout the year (usually aligning with the end of CBO pathway programs), CASBO will open the CBO exam for a specified time period, known as the exam window. During this exam window, all eligible individuals can register and sit for this exam. The exam is on-demand and can be taken at any point during the exam window.
After the exam window closes, an external expert reviews the exam results to make sure the exam is fair and accurate. Results are released once this review is complete.
Next exam window: February 2024.
The current cost for the CBO exam is $400.
