This is relatively new as the IBM testing platform was launched in September 2013. The old testing platform required two computers also -- the administrator's computer and the candidate's computer -- so that is not new. As reported earlier, the big change is the requirement to register for your specific exam on the CLEP website (setting up an account if you have not done so before, and then paying the $80 test fee). This will produce a Registration Ticket which must be shown (paper copy or displayed on your smart phone) to the test center upon check-in. The other change CLEP has made is to restrict even more what is considered acceptable as a secondary ID (if you do not have two valid government-issued IDs with name, photo and signature).
