WorldatWork Expanding Computer-Based Testing
Based on a positive response, WorldatWork is pleased to expand computer-based testing (CBT) for all course exams starting Jan. 1, 2010.

CBT provides customers with immediate preliminary test results in a secure environment. With locations worldwide, you can easily schedule your exam for the date, time and location most convenient for you.

Registering and Scheduling Your Exam:

1.     Register for any one of the certification exams with WorldatWork, either online or by calling Customer Relationship Services at 877-951-9191 or 480-951-9191 outside of the U.S. and Canada. (Your complete registration and payment must be received before you can schedule your exam.)

2.     Your receipt will instruct you to visit www.pearsonvue.com/worldatwork to set up an account with your name and e-mail address.

3.     Once you have set up an account with Pearson VUE, they will send you an e-mail with your Pearson VUE login ID and password. Again, visit www.pearsonvue.com/worldatwork and select the link to “Schedule a Test.” You’ll need your login ID and password to schedule your exam date, time and location. Alternatively, you may call the Pearson VUE Call Center at 877-385-7957 ext. 2895 to find a location and schedule your exam. You will only be eligible to schedule an exam for which you have registered through WorldatWork first.

What to Bring to the Testing Center:
To complete the necessary sign-in procedures, it is recommended that you arrive at the test center at least 30 minutes before your scheduled exam time. Please be prepared to show one (1) form of personal ID. The ID must be current (not expired) and include your signature and photo. For security reasons, some test centers may also require you to provide a fingerprint and/or take your digital photo upon arrival.

You will not be allowed to take any personal items with you into the testing room. This includes all purses, bags, books, notes, PDAs, cell phones, pagers, watches, wallets, hats, gloves and coats. Some testing centers have lockers available to store your personal items during your test. For the GR2/T3 exam, you will be allowed to bring your TI BAII calculator into the testing room. Basic calculators and scratch paper will be available at the testing center for any exam.

To make a request for special accommodations to take your exam or for any other questions, please contact WorldatWork at 877-951-9191 or 480-951-9191. Visit www.worldatwork.org/cbt for additional information on computer-based testing.
