When will the NCE exams or testing reopen? Answer from CSWMFT Board: the decision regarding testing is largely beyond the Board's control. We do not own any of the exams that we use, thus we have to follow the guidance of the exam owners. NBCC has not yet announced when testing will begin again as their decision also involves test center owner PearsonVue. We'll be exploring options with NBCC regarding testing, but I am doubtful any options will be available that do not involve a testing center given concerns about exam security. **NEW 4/7/20**
