How do I fill out the COOL paperwork for the exam date, exam location and credentialing agency?

  • Certification exam date: COOL needs an estimated exam date.
    • Exam date can be approximately 60 days out from when you submit your funding request.
  • Exam location:
    • Marine Corps and Coast Guard applicants: Please enter YOUR home city and state because the exam is conducted virtually via Microsoft Teams.   
      • Coast Guard Applicants must pay out of pocket and then get reimbursed. We offer the PayPal pay later option so you can get it paid for and owe later. By the time you are finished and get your reimbursement, you can pay it off with no penalties.

    • Army and Air Force applicants: Please select Exam Center: Resilience-Building Leader Program from the drop-down menu.
  • Credentialing agency: Enter RBLP, please do not list COOL. 
  • Once RBLP has received payment from COOL/CA, we will email you with guidance on your next steps and the coupon code to use.
