hi everyone - Was anyone schedule to take exam this week or in coming 2-3 weeks? I just received a mail from pearson saying their testing facilities are closed for 1 month. My exam was scheduled for 3/19 and I am unable to reschedule on PMI website.

Any suggestions?

Only PMI can answer this question. I recommend that you contact them both first by phone and have that followed up by email.

I was scheduled for taking the exam on March 28th; still didn't get any e-mail notification but if I enter my profile, I do find that the test center is unavailable on the date my exam is scheduled. However, if I try to reschedule, it asks me to pay the reschedule fee! Not to mention that only a couple of dates are available in May. Their website keeps crashing and there is no way to reach the customer service...

Gabriella:

You need to reach a body at PMI, not a machine. Be persistent. Call during business hours, leave messages and of course send emails to the support email address at the office: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.

All of the customer care options are here: www.pmi.org/about/contact

I found the live chat option to be pretty useless, so stick with email and phone. Be persistent.

Hello

I was also scheduled to take the exam on 19th and got the same mail. I called PMI and they did confirm the same. They said they will send an email in 3-5 business days after which the exam can be rescheduled.

Thanks

Harry has given the right advice.

If your exam was scheduled with Pearson VUE you can read about their policies here: home.pearsonvue.com/coronavirus-update
