National Certifications
If you have national certification pathways, you should locate the survival guides for each certification and complete any additional steps that may be required for each company. You can find these survival guides on the RCU website by navigating to Assessment > Student Certification > Certification Tools.
ASE:
ASE vouchers have been purchased. If you have not submitted a Help Desk ticket to receive the purchase order information, please do so immediately.
Certiport:
Certiport certifications will have practice exam vouchers emailed directly to the instructors and testing coordinators the week of Feb. 21. It is imperative testing coordinators receive these practice exam vouchers because exam vouchers will be sent to the same email. Be on the lookout for them and submit a Help Desk ticket if you do not receive the vouchers.
Early Childhood (Pre-PAC):
Pre-PAC vouchers are ready. The testing coordinator should follow the instructions in the survival guide to prepare for testing. Vouchers are already loaded into your accounts.
Health Science and Sports Medicine:
All vouchers have been purchased. Please follow the survival guide instructions to create accounts and prepare for testing.
NCCER:
If you have not completed an NCCER import template or accommodations, you will need to submit this by Feb. 18. You can find this template by navigating to Assessment > Reports > Testing Tools. Download your template, enter the students’ NCCER ID numbers and send the template to the RCU via Help Desk.
NCCER proctor training occurred in late January. More training will occur at MS ACTE. Be on the lookout to sign up for these trainings later this semester.
NIMS:
NIMS schools have been contacted with information and instructions to follow. If you are the testing coordinator and have not been contacted, please submit a Help Desk ticket immediately.
ServSafe:
All ServSafe vouchers will be sent to testing coordinators in early March. Please have student accounts created by then. You can follow the survival guide for help with this process.
SolidWorks:
Engineering programs using SolidWorks will find updated resources (CSWA Mechanical Academies by SolidWorks Survival Guide and SolidWorks Academic Certification Provider Program) on the Student Certifications page of the RCU website. These resources give guidance on student practice exams and how exams will be assigned.
TestOut:
TestOut training will be Feb. 10 at 1:30 p.m. for testing coordinators via Zoom. If you did not get a link emailed to you, please submit a Help Desk ticket.
If you have a question or need assistance, reach out to us by sending a Help Desk ticket or by calling 662.325.2510.
