SSCP Exam – Changes on the Way!

On November 1, several changes will be made to the SSCP exam. We are excited to share that the SSCP exam will be available in four more languages. Currently, the SSCP exam is available in English and Japanese, but come November it will also be available in Chinese, Korean, German and Spanish.

In addition to these new languages, we will be updating the length of the SSCP exam. As announced earlier this year for both the CISSP exam and CCSP exam, 25 pre-test (unscored) items will be added. These items do not impact the pass/fail result of your exam, but they are indistinguishable from operational (scored) items, so if you’re taking the exam, you should consider every item carefully and select the best possible answer, as you will not know if it counts toward your final score. To allow candidates sufficient time to answer all items, we have extended the time limit for the SSCP exam from three to four hours.

Adding additional pre-test (unscored) items to the exams helps us ensure the security and integrity of the exams and combats “exam dumps,” which violate the Non-Disclosure Agreement that all candidates must sign.

If you’re currently registered to take the SSCP after November 1, you’ll be contacted by Pearson VUE directly. You can move your exam date up, if you do not wish to have the longer version of the exam, by contacting Pearson VUE directly. If you have any questions at all about these changes, please contact our Exam Administration team at examadministration@isc2.org.
