There are no Pearson VUE testing facilities in our area. What is the process to establish a new testing site?
As we continue experience growth in APICS certification, we are experiencing limitations with Pearson VUE testing facility locations. APICS uses Pearson VUE as a third party testing facility. Pearson VUE not only administers APICS exams, but they also administer other industry exams at the same locations. Therefore, any business decision to open up a new testing facility is the sole responsibility of Pearson VUE. APICS is more than welcome to make recommendations, however a business case and return on investment must be justified by Pearson VUE. However, APICS has developed the group testing program to mitigate these circumstances. You are able to contact your local chapter to inquire about group testing. APICS is also in the process of looking at other testing delivery options to ensure our candidates testing needs are being met. Please email your complaints, concerns, questions or suggestions to certification@apics.org.
