Spring Examination Deadline Extended to June 15, 2020

Spring CAPA and CPAN Exam Testing Window Extended to June 15, 2020

Extension of the Spring Exam Testing Window:

PSI has notified ABPANC that some of their testing centers will re-open on May 1. The centers that will be open are ones in areas where local governments have approved openings according to their guidelines and re-opening plans. As a result – to give all of our candidates who still wish to take the CPAN or CAPA certification exam this spring ample time to test – we have extended the testing administration window to June 15, 2020.

Important Information Regarding Limited Test Center Openings:

  • Check the status of the PSI testing center near you: https://www.psionline.com/closures.  Updates are posted daily, so please check back often as scheduled reopening dates can potentially change.
  • PSI Testing Centers that are open will follow social distancing requirements. As such, there may be a backlog of candidates waiting for confirmation of an appointment time, depending on availability of space and volume of candidates.
  • Check with the local requirements and ordinances regarding wearing protective gear/PPE. If your Testing Center is in an area that requires face masks, you MUST come to the center with your own face mask. You will NOT be allowed to test without one, in these instances. You will be asked to remove your face mask to verify your identification, and then must wear the face mask for the duration of your time at the Testing Center.
  • PSI has created a FAQ document that may be helpful to test candidates. Please find the FAQ here. Or here: https://www.psionline.com/wp-content/uploads/psi-services-covid-19-faqs.pdf
