What’s the Big Deal About Remote Testing?

In our third edition, Jamie Mulkey, Vice President of Sales for Xvoucher interviews Sierra Hampton-Simmons, the Director and Portfolio Manager of Certification programs for the Project Management Institute.

 

 

Join us as we discuss why it’s important to keep the candidate experience in mind when you are looking at remote and in-person high stakes test administration.

 “Many of us want to believe that testing from home is very easy… The reality is that you are taking the test from your own device, in a room, all by yourself. You don’t have the standardized processes and people you are used to when testing in a testing center." -Sierra Hampton-Simmons

Project Management Institute (PMI) is now offering project professionals the ability to schedule and take their Project Management Professional (PMP)® exam online from their home or office. The PMP exam now joins two other PMI certification exams professionals can take online: the PMI Agile Certified Practitioner (PMI-ACP) and Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM) certification exams.
