Does a company have to sponsor you for this exam like they do with most securities licenses?

no sponsor needed. Just need to register for exam to open a window. Then go to www.prometric.com to schedule the exam

Thanks for the replies.

Would you guys know who is the best publisher for the study materials .

To register go to NFA website.

That exam is pretty easy. Just make sure when you register you register with the exact same name on your drivers lisence. Instead of putting my entire first name I put only my first initial and it caused a mess at the testing center. Long story short they wouldn't let me take the exam that day and I had to reschedule for later. It was a pain.

Anyhow, the study materials I used were at the following site:

I know Pass Perfect is a good publisher , they are a little pricey though.
