What exam did Pearson VUE charge me for?

Pearson VUE does not issue credentials; they merely operate the testing centers and software. They administer exams for hundreds of organizations, including CompTIA, Cisco, AWS, the NCLEX (nursing), and the GMAT.

When you schedule a test either at a physical Pearson VUE center or via their OnVUE online proctoring system, the payment is processed by Pearson VUE rather than the specific credentialing board.

How can I find out which exam was booked?

Check your email for a confirmation receipt from '@pearson.com' or log in to your Pearson VUE web account. The receipt will detail the exact exam name, date, and testing sponsor.

What is OnVUE?

OnVUE is Pearson VUE's online proctoring service that allows you to take an exam from home while being monitored via webcam.

Rescheduling or canceling a Pearson VUE exam

If you need to cancel or reschedule, you must do so before the deadline set by your specific exam sponsor. This is typically 24 to 48 hours before the scheduled appointment.

Failing to appear for your exam or attempting to cancel after the deadline will result in a forfeiture of the entire testing fee. Refunds are automatically issued to the original card if you cancel in time.
