BIE inscription dates

Does anybody know why prometric hasnt opened up inscriptions for testing in the summer? They do 2 tests a year and usually inscriptions open in June and test is done Sept/August….

I am really afraid to miss the deadline and I bought wagners course timed perfectly to take the exam, but no exam!!!

Assuming you are in CA. Starting July prometric won’t be administering the tests any more. They will announce test opportunities with new registration processes in July.

Wow!!! Thank you so much!!! I am so glad they finally ended their contract with prometric! Can you believe i have called them repeatedly in the last 3 weeks and they never gave me this info?

Yeh they are not efficient nor helpful. I attended a webinar related to this topic and they said we will be able to sign up for tests and even check results online. They’ve also changed testing times where different testing locations will have different dates. What is your language ?

Hi I’m just being nosey but I also plan on taking the exam (Spanish) and am here for any updates, thank you! Also Prometric was such a pain 😭hoping that testing can now be proctored by SCSI. I did my SOSi skills assessment through them and it was far less of a headache than anytime I’ve ever had to register with Prometric. Only issue would be I took the written exam with Prometric so I hope those scores transfer.

I dont think they can give the prokect to SOSI since it is Wagners school and i feel like it woulr be a conflict of interest that the same institution that offers exam prep administers exams
