Test Driver Functionality Tests (TDFTs) are exams that Pearson VUE created to test various types of functionality on exam delivery workstations. Running these exams ensures that the workstation is prepared to deliver Pearson VUE exams. To perform this process, you must schedule yourself for at least one appointment for each exam on each exam delivery workstation in your center.
You must schedule and take some TDFT exams. Each test delivery channel is required to take different TDFT exams. Please see the table below to identify which TDFTs your site should take. You must schedule and take the following optional TDFTs exams on each exam delivery workstation ONLY IF:
