For those candidates who have already scheduled with Prometric on or after 1 July 2019, we will work with Prometric and Pearson VUE to have their test appointment moved to Pearson VUE.
Next Steps for Candidates Who Have Not Scheduled
Candidates who did not yet schedule their exams as of 19 April have been sent Pearson VUE scheduling information to schedule their exams on or after 1 July.
