You want the good news first?
I only was able to speak with Vue about this today but the gist of it
is that they can include electronic reference materials in their exams at no
additional cost.
Good news!!
Assuming this is the same with Prometric, we then have to:
- create the reference guide
- translate it into all languages that we have an exam (English, Japanese,
German, French, Spanish, Chinese, Portuguese and Swedish Chef)
- create a print version for the paper exams
- get LPI to approve and find the funding for this
In this order ? Isn't better get LPI approve first before starting ?
This would be a major undertaking and transition, too, that would need to be
timed with a complete review of the item pool.
Any keen authors out there?
I think we could start listing what should be added to the reference
guide or wait until the exam tasks be defined. What do you think ?
For portuguese version there are me and Fernando to translate.
