CTT+ excluded from online testing?

[Tess Sluijter]

Hi there, g'day!

I'm currently prepping to take the CTT+ exams and am looking forward to the experience very much. I was surprised to see that CTT+ is excluded from the test-at-home online testing that will go live in about a week's time -> http://comptia.org/testing/online-testing-interest-form

Online testing is not available in China, Cuba, Iran, Japan, North Korea, South Korea, Slovenia, Sudan, and Syria. Other exclusions include CTT+ and any site licenses.

I'm very curious as to why the theoretical part of the CTT+ examination would be excluded. It does not strike me as dissimilar to the other tests.

Actually, I do not have an answer, @Tess Sluijter for that question. I know the exam is ready for an update. It is also a low volume exam. I am not sure if that is the reason or if there is something else. I will check to see if I can come up with an answer.

 

[Tess Sluijter]

Many thanks! I'm looking forward to hearing from you guys.

Did you manage to find any leads Stephen? For now it looks like CTT+ theoretical will simply not/never be available online.

Couple of things going on with this one. Actually just talked with the right person yesterday. So, it appears that CTT+ is not a super popular cert, the number are not very high for test takers. Therefore it was not at the top of the list to be converted over to the online testing engine. It is, however going to be moved over. I did not receive a date as to when that would be happening. Will keep updating as I hear more info.

Thanks for your update! This is certainly something to keep my hopes up

It is online now I believe. Yes? I can see as an option for PearsonVue.

Yes, the exam may be taken online through Q1 of 2023 before it retires.
