Most importantly, as one can appreciate more after learning FACS, everyone has their own pace of coding.
It would not be comfortable for the participants, and there is no role for an instructor. In order for a final test to be part of the workshop, one would need at least 3-4 extra days, but it makes no sense at all to do it in a class session. Individual items can take up to 20 minutes to code on first glance, plus one needs time for reviewing all items. It is recommended that people do it over the course of several sittings, often over several days. The FACS final test contains 34 video clips of real-life interaction, which test-takers complete in a self-paced fashion.
