I would like to know about

I would like to know about this also. As far as I can tell, it was the testing service that notified us of our results. The VACC has been totally silent since generating the test and collecting the money.

Hi Daniel,

Hello DEVON1:

I wanted to take a quick moment to respond to your inquiry and posting regarding the VA-BC certiificataion and exam results. Because this was the first exam offered, by protocol, a statistical cut score had to be calculated before the results could be released. This process was executed under the professional guidance of Prometrics, whcih is our testing partner. Once this cut score was set, inidivudal candidates were then notified of their score, and of course whether or not they passed or failed. That being said, because the cut score is now created, all future candidates will receive their score report as soon as they complete their exam at the local testing center.

Thank you in advance for your comments, and on behalf of the VACC Board of Directors, most importantly congratulations on your accomplishment by passing this exam. We look forward to having you join this exciting group of healthcare professionals. If I can be of any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me at [email protected]. In addition, I would like suggest that future comments or questions regarding the certification examination or process be directed to our administrative office at [email protected]. We aim to promptly respond to all questiions.

Congratulations again!

Haven't heard a word. I'm actually a bit disappointed and starting to wonder about "the system".

Hello,

If you successfully passed the examination, your certificate and certification pin will be mailed by the end of next week to your shipping address provided at the time of application.

Please feel free to contact our administrative office, which is staffed by Lois Davis, at [email protected] if you do not receive your materials shortly thereafter.

Thanks again for your inquiry, and congratulations!

Hello DEVON1:

I wanted to take a quick moment to respond to your inquiry and posting regarding the VA-BC certiificataion and exam results. As you know, this is the first time that the exam was offered, and the Certification Certificate production from the vendor was slightly delayed due to production issues. Please rest assured that both the certificates as well as pins are being shipped late next week to all candidates that successfully passed the examination. We do sincerely apologize for the delay that this has caused those that passed, and the vendor that is printing the certificates has since resolved the issue as of early this week.

Thank you in advance for your comments, and on behalf of the VACC Board of Directors, most importantly congratulations on your accomplishment by passing this exam.
