About the Testing Centers

Welcome!

Whether you are a new student, a current student, or a community member, the Rowan-Cabarrus Testing Centers offer a professional setting for you to take your exams. We currently have Testing Centers at both our North and South Campus locations. We are committed to providing you with quality proctoring support from qualified and fully trained staff. Through our Testing Centers, we offer many different testing and assessment services, including:

Academic Testing

At the instructor’s discretion, if you are enrolled in online, hybrid or independent study courses or if you need to take a make-up exam, you may take your tests in one of our Testing Centers.

Automotive Service Excellence (ASE)

ASE is a professional certification for individuals in the automotive repair and service industry. It is usually required by employers for those interested in pursuing a career in automotive mechanic or automotive technician service. Once you register for the exam through the ASE website, give us a call to schedule an appointment at either our North or South Campus locations.

Career Readiness Certification Testing (WorkKeys)

North Carolina’s Career Readiness Certification (CRC) serves as a portable credential that certifies the essential skills for workplace success. The CRC is a valid predictor of job performance and is based upon WorkKeys, a nationally recognized skills assessment tool developed by ACT.

Credit For Prior Learning

The Testing Centers at North and South Campus offer CLEP (College Level Examination Program) and DSST exams. These exams allow you to earn college credit and complete your degree faster. CLEP and DSST are done by an appointment basis only.

High Stakes/Professional Testing

Rowan-Cabarrus Community College is an authorized testing site for Pearson-VUE. We also administer Health Programs Admissions testing, such as KAPLAN and TEAS.

Miller Analogies Test (MAT)

The MAT measures analytical thinking and is a requirement for admissions to many graduate programs. We currently offer MAT administration at our South Campus in Concord.

Placement Testing

Testing for skill levels ensures placement into appropriate initial courses.

There is a $20.00 proctoring fee per test for community members. Currently enrolled Rowan-Cabarrus students who need proctoring for other schools receive the student rate of $10.00 per test.
