BLOOMINGTON, MN, AUGUST 28, 2013 — The California Certifying Board for Medical Assistants (CCBMA) has agreed a multi-year renewal with Pearson VUE to deliver its computer-based medical assistant certification.

The exam, which can be taken year-round at test centers throughout California and across the US, enables candidates to test when they are ready. Comprising three multiple-choice components; one compulsory and two specialties, candidates also benefit from receiving preliminary results on the same day of the test.

Kate Logan, CCMA-AC, Certifying Board Administrator of CCBMA, said: “Pearson VUE provides CCBMA a highly attentive partner focused on providing our candidates a consistent experience throughout its testing centers. Pearson VUE’s commitment to CCBMA, quality, and security were essential to our decision to renew our relationship.”
