# How to remove a center from an exam

The **Remove Center** option in the **Centers** tab allows coordinators to unassign a center from a specific exam. This is useful when a center is no longer needed for an exam, without affecting its availability across the system.

In this article, you can understand how to remove a center from an exam configuration.

***

### **Accessing the Remove Option**

<div style={{ position:"relative",paddingBottom:"calc(54.02777777777777% + 41px)",height:0,width:"600px",margin:"0 auto" }}>
  <iframe src="https://demo.arcade.software/f08LLKeGV4fKyXvrmzNV?embed&embed_mobile=tab&embed_desktop=inline&show_copy_link=true" title="How to remove a center from an exam" frameBorder="0" loading="lazy" webkitAllowFullScreen mozAllowFullScreen allowFullScreen allow="clipboard-write" style={{ position:"absolute",top:0,left:0,width:"100%",height:"100%",colorScheme:"light" }} />
</div>

1. Navigate to the **Exams** section.
2. Select the required exam.
3. Go to the **Centers** tab.
4. Locate the center you want to remove.
5. Click on the **Delete (🗑️) icon** next to the center.

### **What Happens When You Remove a Center**

* The center is **removed from the selected exam only**.
* It will no longer be available for candidate bookings under this exam.
* The center **remains available in the system** and can still be used for:
  * Other exams
  * Future configurations

<Note>
  **Important Notes**

  * This action does **not delete the center from the database**.
  * You can re-add the same center later using the **+ Add Center** option.
  * Removing a center only affects its association with the current exam.
</Note>

> Removing a center simply unlinks it from an exam without impacting its existence in the system. This ensures flexibility, allowing coordinators to update exam configurations without affecting shared center data.
