Iqbal Institute of Technology and Management is the only authorized “Pearson VUE testing Center” in the Union Territories of J&K and Ladakh. There was no online testing Centre in the J&K till 2007. The students of the state had to incur heavy expenditure for travel, lodging and boarding outside state in any part of India which becomes a hurdle in their way to appear for the final Certification. Number of students from J&K prepared for the examinations of APPLE, MICROSOFT, CISCO and SUN etc. but was not able to get final certification. Hence, they were unable to get themselves certified by the concerned organizations. In July 2007, Pearson Testing Centre was established by Iqbal Memorial Trust in IITM, with the intention that our youth/Students will be able to give test and get final certification from the concerned organizations without travelling to other states. After certification students can find the placement at global level. Another motive for establishing the Testing Centre was that many students wanted to qualify tests for getting admission in Institutes of Higher Learning in different parts of globe, but since there was lack of information and no nearby testing facility, they remained passive and gave up the idea of studying in prestigious institutions for which such testing was required. This testing Centre helped the youth/students in getting them certified at their doorstep. It will not be out of turn to mention that hundreds of students of J&K got benefited from this Center else they had to go outside the UT for appearing in the Online Exams. In the Year 2017, from April to July, 292(Two hundred and ninety two) candidates appeared in the Pearson Testing Center for the Online Examination. A few other institutes also tried to open up this center in the UT’s but these were soon shut down as these centers did not yield much profit to them, which was their sole motive for opening up of such center. Due to political disturbances from August 2019 the internet services were unavailable and immediately after that from March 2020 all the institutes were closed due to Covid-19. So the testing centre was also closed globally. Now we are all set to open up the Pearson testing Centre with upgraded hardware and software facilities so that hundreds of students may benefit by certifying themselves and appearing in the upcoming exams through Pearson.
