Operative words

Due to increasing concern for the health and safety of our candidates and our employees and in response to government guidance and difficulty procuring the critical hygienic products that keep our test centers safe, we have temporarily closed our U.S.-based Pearson VUE-owned and operated Pearson Professional Centers (PPCs) (Pearson VUE); swift closure in March in response to the COVID-19 pandemic (TREC)
