Register to take your IBM certification exam online or at a Pearson VUE test center

You have the option to take IBM certification exams in person at a Pearson VUE® Authorized Test Center or online with OnVUE in the comfort and privacy of your home.

Should you take your exam online?

Testing online with the OnVUE system is flexible, convenient and easy — but there are unique requirements you should be familiar with. For example, you’ll need a private, distraction-free space to take the exam. A system test will show if your computer and internet are sufficient. And you’ll be monitored by proctors and assistive AI tools during the test. Weigh your options »
