PRONTO @ work
PRONTO@work recognizes jurisdictions that establish a dedicated ICC PRONTO testing area on-site.
What is PRONTO@work?
By creating a space where employees can complete their proctored remote online test, jurisdictions demonstrate their commitment to building safety and their employees’ professional development. They also limit the time out of office necessitated by computer-based testing, which must be taken at approved ICC testing centers.
Not sure what is needed to establish a dedicated PRONTO@work testing area in your office? PRONTO provides overview resources to help you get started, as well as recognition for organizations that have committed to providing this valuable opportunity on-site for their staff.
PRONTO is a proctored online remote testing option now available to all code officials. This secure and convenient online exam delivery service is even better when integrated into your jurisdiction through a dedicated on-site testing area.
