Prometric Selected by International Society for Clinical Densitometry to Modernize Exam

Prometric, the leading global provider of technology-enabled testing and assessment services, has been selected by the International Society for Clinical Densitometry (ISCD) to revise and computerize the U.S. Technologist Bone Densitometry Certification (CBDTTM) exam.

Baltimore, MD. (PRWEB) March 27, 2008 -- Prometric, the leading global provider of technology-enabled testing and assessment services, has been selected by the International Society for Clinical Densitometry (ISCD) to revise and computerize the U.S. Technologist Bone Densitometry Certification (CBDTTM) exam.

As the company that pioneered the conversion of paper based tests to computerized versions, Prometric has been trusted by ISCD with redeveloping the exam content and converting it to a modern, computerized form. Candidates taking the newly computerized exam will be able to test more often and at more locations since the test will be available at all of Prometric's U.S. and Canadian test centers. In addition, because of the computerized format, candidates will receive their scores more quickly.

Priscilla Shisler, MEd, Director of Continuing Professional Education, stated, "The services we have chosen Prometric to provide -- test development, item analysis and test conversion -- are the core of its business, so we are confident that they will successfully guide us through this process and help us grow the CBDTTM exam."

"Prometric is the only provider to have successfully and efficiently converted over 500 paper based exams to computerized format," said Ray Kelly Senior Vice President, Sales and Client Services. "What makes Prometric the industry leader is our ability to take decades of specialized experience and translate it into peace of mind, minimized risk and business value for clients like ISCD. We're confident that ISCD's new and improved exam will be well received and successful among doctors, technologists and health providers worldwide."
