PVTC Government Center site activation checklist
This is a list of the items required to activate the exams for your site.
Site Manager setup:

An open rule for the site’s standard open hours is set up in the Availability category on the Hours page. You must create a year’s worth of holiday closure rules.

Exam delivery workstations have been set up – one for each workstation in the Availability category on the Workstations page. See Chapter 4, "Specifying your center's workstations" in the Pearson VUE Authorized Test Center Policies and Procedures guide.

See Chapter 4, "Workstation asset binding" in the Pearson VUE Authorized Test Center Policies and Procedures guide. |

Directions to your site have been entered in the Settings category on the Address/Directions page. See Chapter 4, "Entering address information and directions (Location tab)" in the Pearson VUE Authorized Test Center Policies and Procedures guide. |

Certify testing administrators:
☐ |
One administrator has taken and passed the PVTCA exams, and the results have been successfully uploaded. There are two different versions of the PVTCA exam, check with your local VSS support person to verify which version you should take. (If you have taken and passed a PVTCA exam, send the location and date the exam was taken to the installation Technician at Pearson VUE. The PVTCA exam must be taken on a yearly basis.) |
☐ |
Only one administrator is needed for activation, but a backup administrator is recommended. The chief administrator and one other user may have the May add and edit (other) users role. Additional administrators may be added and assigned the May reset passwords and disable accounts role. |
