Three Testing Options
Computer-Based Testing
PSI is WPI’s international computerized exam administrator. Through this partnership, PSI handles the scheduling and administration of computerized exams at PSI Test Centers. Candidates immediately receive their score reports at the conclusion of the exam and clients are able to access examinee results through a password-protected web portal.

Web-Based Testing
A WPI-supported, web-based option exists for clients to administer computerized exams through their own local resources, such as community colleges and field offices. Similar to paper-based exam administration, clients are responsible for scheduling, arranging, and proctoring exam sessions.
WPI’s web-based exams are password protected and require a two-step process with unique IDs and passwords for both proctor and candidate. Candidates immediately obtain their score reports and clients receive email notification of exam results at the conclusion of the exam session.

Paper-Based Testing
Clients using ABC’s paper-based exams are responsible for scheduling, arranging, and proctoring exam sessions. WPI will provide test books, administration instructions, and scannable sheets for candidates to record their answers.
Following the administration of the exam, the client returns all exam material to WPI for scoring and report generation. As part of the scoring process, WPI’s Testing Team performs quality control steps, such as evaluating missing or smudged marks on the scanned sheets.
