Creating an account
Step-by-step guide to creating your account
1. Click Login/Register at the top of the page or click here.
2. Select your ‘Territory’ to tell us where you live.
3. Complete all the fields marked with a red asterisk. You may find the following information helpful:
- Username - your username cannot be your email address or include the @ symbol. It must also be unique.
- Email verification - once you have entered your email address click 'Send Verification Code' and you will receive a code via email. The email will be from Microsoft on behalf of abrsmglobalb2c. Enter the code in the box and click ‘Verify code’. Keep the account page open while you retrieve the code.
- Contact ID - if you haven’t booked ABRSM exams before, leave this blank. Once you’ve created your account we’ll give you a Contact ID. Candidates will be given a Contact ID once they’ve been entered for an exam. If a candidate (parent/carer) wishes to create an account, they should enter this Contact ID along with their date of birth when they register. Contact IDs appear on all communications about exam bookings and results.
4. Once you’ve completed the form, tick the Privacy Policy box to confirm you’ve read our Privacy Policy, then click 'Register’.
5. Complete your marketing preferences to tell us how we can contact you in the future. To receive updates about our exams, assessments, publications and other resources, please opt in. You can change your preferences at any time.
6. Click 'Save and continue' to create your account.
Candidates of any age can have an ABRSM account even if they have not made the exam booking. Parents/carers can create this account on behalf of a child, but the account must be in the child's name.
