Ang Kape Ni LaTtEX

My wife came across a press-release by a company named Pearson VUE stating that

The National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN®) authorized Pearson VUE to expand testing availability for the NCLEX® examination to Manila, the capital of the Philippines. Exam delivery begins at the Pearson VUE-owned and -operated Pearson Professional Center in Manila on August 23, 2007 and exam scheduling opens Friday, July 13, 2007.[Pearson VUE]

This is so hot off the presses I’m not sure I believe it completely. I’ll research on where that Pearson VUE-owned and operated Professional Center is.

In the meantime, everyone oughta spread the word to our nursing grads and board passers. This is certainly good news for them.

UPDATE: I came across this Manila Bulletin article confirming the above. But I still can’t find an address for Pearson VUE’s Manila testing center for the NCLEX. All available addresses I see on the net are for Pearson VUE conducted IT accreditations.

UPDATE 2: Got that address and telephone number:
