What is Koenig's rescheduling and cancellation policy for Siteminder training?
Koenig allows one free rescheduling of Siteminder training if requested more than 10 days before the start date. Rescheduling or cancellations within 10 days incur a 50% fee of the total purchase amount.

The Siteminder r12 Professional (CAT-140) exam consists of 40 multiple-choice and multiple-response questions, with a 75-minute time limit and a 70% passing score.
