Pearson VUE currently offers certification testing in more than 4,500 test centers worldwide, and we believe it will provide excellent service and global testing coverage for Oracle certification exams.
After September 13, candidates will no longer be able to register with Prometric (although candidates may still take their exam at Prometric through September 25). Registrations for Oracle exams through Pearson VUE will begin on September 14, 2009. Candidates should visit www.pearsonvue.com/oracle to find more information, register for an exam or locate a testing center in their area. Existing Oracle exam vouchers will continue to be valid as long as they have not expired.
With the change from Prometric to Pearson VUE, we expect no disruption in availability of testing. However candidates should be aware of two system issues that may affect the shipment of your certificate and the timing of your certification. First, maintenance to Oracle's certification database during the transition period may delay the shipment of your printed certificate up to two or three weeks. Second, our Hands On Course Requirement forms system will be down for maintenance from September 14 – September 28, 2009 while a new streamlined system is brought online. During the downtime, Oracle will work diligently to clear and validate all submitted forms but no new submissions will be accepted. If you currently have an outstanding form that needs your attention, please respond to ocpreq_ww@oracle.comwith the requested information as soon as possible to avoid a delay in receiving your success kit. After September 28, 2009 a new tool, the Course Submission Form, will be live on the Pearson VUE website.
We have provided more information and a series of FAQs on the Oracle Certification Program website for common questions related to the vendor change. For additional questions or further assistance, please contact Oracle Certification at ocpexam_ww@oracle.com.
We are excited about this transition, and are confident that this change will improve our service to you.
