[humanser] NCE Question

[Darla Rogers]

OMG, Marion; I need to read the first post about this; the CRC exam is now
offered electronically--I need to get re-certified--but as far as I know,
one does not need a scribe.
	This is something we all need to work on; a scribe can make or break
your exam--especially if you don't get to choose--and yes; I totally agree:
It is custodial, and in reality, some exams for professions I never hear of,
I think are just trying to make money off the candidates.
	of course, I understand with some professions, it is necessary to
demonstrate competencies--and we are more than competent to take exams in
alternate formats, and I'm sick of the worries about cheating being used as
an excuse not to make licensing exams accessible.

Jeannie,
	Merry and I are both preparing to take standardized licensing exams
for our professions and realize the same issue; although the exams are
offered to sighted examinees in an electronic format and, it stands to
reason,  that electronic format should be either accessible or could be
easily accessible, it is required we have a reader and/or scribe.
Furthermore, the provider of one exam requires those who request
accommodations have their doctor advise them as to which accommodations are
needed, rather than rely upon the examinee to make this call. It seems
rather custodial and discounts the professionalism the licensee is testing
to demonstrate! A little ironic, it seems!

Your Two-Bowl brother!
Marion

Hello all-

It's great to see the recent activity on the list! I have a quick question
for anyone who has recently or is getting ready to take the NCE Exam , or
well, actually, any other Masters level licensure examination. I have been
told that , although the exam is in an electronic format, I will have to
take it with a scribe and a reader in a private room. I would like to ask
everyone's thoughts on this issue and learn from your experiences as well. 

I appreciate any feedback that you can give me and anyone else preparing to
take a certification or licensure exam in the mental health field.

Jeannie
