Test Center Testimonials

I have been both a proctor and a trainer at a BPI Test Center and found that you gain credibility simply by being a part of a BPI training organization. Because I am seen as someone who knows specific subject matter, I’ve been invited to discuss standards and incentives on a local and statewide basis.
