QA, the UK’s leading provider of training and consulting, today announces a partnership with Pearson VUE and the expansion of QA’s certification testing facilities.
QA has opened a vendor testing facility at its Cirencester training centre to support the demand for certification testing from local companies. Pearson VUE testing facilities are available at the Cirencester site, providing a convenient location and flexible testing schedule to help IT professionals achieve accreditation from all leading technology providers including Microsoft, HP, Sun, CompTIA, Lotus and Cisco.
“Certification is the new guarantee of ROI for organisations. For IT professionals, it means improved job prospects, promotion and salary increases,” said Jon Shepstone, head of operations at QA. “As the number one provider of certification in the UK*, QA is best-placed to help delegates achieve accreditation”.
"Pearson VUE is delighted to have formed a strategic partnership with QA, providing enhanced testing services and technology to their customers in Cirencester," said Anneleen Vaandrager, vice president and general manager of Pearson VUE, EMEA. " With this wonderful new facility in Cirencester, we now have the ability to provide our customers there with on-demand testing, enabling same day booking and testing."
To mark the new partnership, Pearson VUE is offering all candidates who sit Pearson VUE tests at QA sites a free Rough Guide to a European city. Candidates will also be entered into a competition for travel vouchers worth £350**.
