How to be CBA:
- Go back or work for a QBN member.
- Complete all three exams with a score of 80% or more.
- If you just start your own balloon business, you may consider waiting at least 2 years before taking the practical test to build your techniques and skills. During this time we recommend you continue with your education attending the events sponsored by Qualatex, watching instructional video and applying your experience.
- Sign up for the CBA practical face-to-face exam by sending your form at least 30 days before the exam.
- Prepare for the exam by going back to the QBN DVDs and reading the guide for the Practical Exam for more information and details.
- Pass the 4-hour Practical Exam with a score equal to or greater than 80%.

CBA Practical Exam Guide
before the exam
The Certified Balloon Artist practical exam establishes a worldwide standard for balloon professionals.
Earning your CBA designation begins with becoming a QBN Member and culminates in a 4-hour practical where you demonstrate your knowledge and ability to produce high quality balloon work.
Taking any kind of exam can be stressful but the CBA practical doesn’t have to be!
This guide, along with experience and practice, can help you pass with flying colors.

Each photo should be from a different job and include only Qualatex balloons.


at the exam
Plan to arrive at least 20 minutes early to the exam site so you have enough time to get set up.
You’ll have your own workstation but will have to share a common equipment station.
During the exam, you’ll be required to complete:
- A social expression bouquet of your own design
- A table centerpiece of your own design
- A duplicated bouquet
- A twisted balloon flower
- A 5-balloon cluster garland
- Demonstrate temporary and permanent knots
- Either a mock sales call or ´delivery presentation
- Six questions from the QBN curriculum
While that may seem like a lot, it’s all in an average day’s work for a professional balloon decorator.
As long as you practice in advance, you’ll be prepared to perform these tasks just fine!
