Comprehending WPI’s Certification Exams
Each certification program has the authority to determine the content of its own exams. Not all programs opt to have their exams administered by ABC Testing, WPI’s testing service. And not all of WPI’s testing service clients use WPI’s standardized exams. WPI also offers our ABC Testing clients the option to develop their own customized exams by granting them access to our banks of nationally validated exam items.
- Contact the certifying authority for information regarding that program’s exams.
- Visit the WPI Certification Program page if you would like more information about certification through WPI.
WPI’s certification exams are administered by our testing service, ABC Testing. The exams are administered using either paper tests or computerized tests. All of WPI’s standardized exams are closed book. No reference material, programmable calculators, computers, or cameras are allowed in the examination site. Candidates should only bring photo identification, a non-programmable calculator, two sharpened soft-lead (#2 or HB) pencils, and an eraser to the examination site.
Any other material must be left outside the examination site. Candidates are not allowed to take any written material from the examination site. Candidates who violate these rules may be asked to leave the site and may be disqualified from the exam.
Test results are provided to individual examinees only by the member certifying authority responsible for issuing certificates. WPI cannot provide examination results directly to candidates.
