# How do I retake the CCMA exam if I didn’t pass?
## Learn how to retake the CCMA exam after a 30-day waiting period, including how to schedule, pay the retake fee through NHA, and prepare effectively for your next attempt.
Question: I did not pass my CCMA exam. How can I retake it?
Answer: If you did not pass the CCMA on the first attempt, you can retake it after a 30-day waiting period. Log in to your NHA account and select “Retake Exam.” You will need to pay the retake fee directly to NHA — Zollege only covers the first attempt voucher. Schedule your new exam date. We strongly recommend reviewing your score report to identify weak areas, retaking the NHA online practice exams, and reaching out to your instructor for additional study support before your retake.
