MSI Now Offering IT Certification Testing System

Posted by: Administrator in General Business, Company News on March 01, 2006

MSI Educational Services Joins Global Pearson VUE Testing Network.

MSI Educational Services this month announced that it has signed an agreement with Pearson VUE, the electronic testing business of Pearson Education, to provide information technology certification test delivery using the Pearson VUE® Testing System. The Pearson VUE advanced computer-based testing system administers exams for leading IT certification programs such as Microsoft, Cisco Systems®, CompTIA, IBM and others through a global network of quality test centers.

"We are very excited about our new partnership with Pearson VUE," says Ron Vreeland, Director of Training Services for MSI. "The Pearson VUE Testing System is the most powerful and comprehensive system available. We are pleased to partner with a company whose commitment to technological growth and passion for service will allow us to provide an even greater service and level of flexibility for our customers."

Among the technological advances of the Pearson VUE system is the ability of test candidates to register and reschedule their tests at the test center on the Pearson VUE Web site, or through a Pearson VUE call center, all in real time via the Internet. "The Pearson VUE Testing System gives us unparalleled control and flexibility over our ability to manage our educational services in our own way," adds Ron Vreeland. "There is greater freedom to experiment with testing hours and the total number of testing stations. We can easily offer same-day testing with the Pearson VUE TESTNOW™ capability, as well as continue to offer a superior testing environment through our educational facilities. We are now able to provide both direct training efforts coupled with certification testing at the very same location."

The growing list of IT certification tests accessible through the Pearson VUE system are delivered directly from the test sponsors. Test results are quickly transmitted back to the testing center, ensuring the candidate's certification status is promptly updated.

Randy Trask, Pearson VUE Vice President of Market Development, said, "We are proud to welcome MSI Educational Services to the rapidly growing global network of Pearson VUE Authorized Centers, providing candidates with an opportunity to participate in a positive, rewarding test experience. We are confident that they will find our service partnership with MSI is outstanding."

Pearson VUE (www.pearsonvue.com) is the electronic testing business of Pearson Education. From operation centers in the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, Japan, India and China, Pearson VUE provides a variety of services to the professional licensing and certification markets. Currently serving 145 countries, there are more than 3,700 Pearson VUE Authorized Centers in its rapidly expanding network.
