2016 Exam & results.

If you have another look at the results, they now show membership numbers also, That will help those of us who forgot candidate numbers.
I got a credit in Mod1. That's 4 modules done now.

That is hardly a surprise but well done anyway; bet you are pleased to have finished the set. Also shows how sensible it is to pace yourself appropriately taking into account one's other work and family responsibilities.

Definitely agreed it is a help as after 4 months many will forget; the downside is that the membership numbers are nothing like as anonymous and so it opens the possibility of other people getting to know before the candidate which isn't good.

Absolutely. I could probably look up (if I were determined) the licence number for every designer in my company and they are the same where people have membership and licence. I hope candidates will learn and keep their numbers next year.

Any candidate's sponsor is bound to know their IRSE membership number and as you say the licence numbers are readily available- often Test Plans contain listings of all relevant testers working on a project.

And version 2 also show the Near Miss categories; again out of line with what typically gets published in IRSE News.  I guess the move to Issue 2 may have been in desperate response to the number of candidates asking IRSE because they'd forgotten their candidate number, but it does seem to have been implemented in haste without too much thought.  Oh the perils of the late mod!
