Hi. I do have a letter from my ophthalmologist which I use. Its worth checking the Cisco exams as they may have changed. I'm not entirely sure though how they would describe all the network diagrams that were on the CCNA exam last time I tried it. Thanks. Andrew. -----Original Message----- From: ultimatethesecond@googlemail.com <ultimatethesecond@googlemail.com> Sent: 27 May 2025 12:15 To: Andrew Hodgson <andrew@hodgson.io> Subject: RE: [Blind-sysadmins] Anyone taken an online exam with Pearson Vue? Hi. Thanks Andrew. Good luck chasing them too. I've started the request process online and Seems I'll need to get a letter from my doctor first. The form requests for documentary evidence of diagnosis and impact. Don't think a copy of my CVI is going to cut it. I'll update the list on how it goes, if it's useful to anyone else. Good to know about Microsoft and Cisco though, disappointing on the latter. I was thinking to try Cisco certification again now you can take exams online but if they don't allow jaws...

Hi. Its getting through and I think I've answered this question on the list before. The accommodations for the exam depend on the partner. So if you're taking the Microsoft exams they will work with Jaws but Cisco don't support it and not sure about Comptia. You have to go through an approval process with Pearson and this seems to be very hit and miss at the moment. For example I'm trying to renew my accommodations but they keep ignoring me and have told me it will take longer to come back due to a ransomware attack at their end. I need to get back onto them about this. My recommendation would be to try and talk to someone at Comptia or see what is available on their website as for example on the Microsoft website they state that Jaws is supported and give a practice test. In the case of the Microsoft exams images are described. Thanks. Andrew. -----Original Message----- From: Chris Turner via Blind-sysadmins <blind-sysadmins@lists.hodgsonfamily.org> Sent: 27 May 2025 11:45 To: blind-sysadmins@lists.hodgsonfamily.org Cc: ultimatethesecond@googlemail.com Subject: [Blind-sysadmins] Anyone taken an online exam with Pearson Vue? HI all. Seeing if this gets through. Has anyone taken an exam online with Pearson Vue? I gather they need to have a camera on, so they can see the room. This shouldn't be a problem. How did accommodations work out? If this is possible at all, that is. I would hope we can take exams online, get extra time and use our screenreaders. I'm looking to take the Comptia Security Plus exam. If anyone else has done, is there much visual content? The practise questions I'm using have the odd diagram but everything is multiple choice. Thanks. Chris. _______________________________________________ Blind-sysadmins mailing list -- blind-sysadmins@lists.hodgsonfamily.org To unsubscribe send an email to blind-sysadmins-leave@lists.hodgsonfamily.org
