Wand scanning at Pearson Professional Centres 24th Jun 2026 Earlier this year, we told candidates that Pearson will use wand scanners when admitting candidates to testing centres. The scanners will be used from the September written examination sitting to check for proxy testers and unauthorised electronic devices. Candidates are reminded that bringing unauthorised materials/devices, including electronic devices, to an exam is not permitted and is considered misconduct. Anyone found with an unauthorised device will not be permitted to enter the examination. Previous Article Next Article
