Supreme Council of Health in Qatar Applauds the Move

BALTIMORE, MD and WASHINGTON, DC and TUNIS, TUNISIA--(Marketwire - January 4, 2011) - Prometric, the leading provider of testing and assessment services, today announced that it has teamed up with AMIDEAST to open a new Professional Testing Center in Tunisia that will offer academic and professional credentialing exams for the first time.

The test center, which is the first of its kind in the country to support exams other than IT certifications, will provide a convenient new testing location for Tunisian test takers who previously had to travel in order to test. Managed by AMIDEAST, who has provided testing services in Tunisia for more than 30 years, the test center opened for business in December and offers well known and popular exams such as the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) and many others offered by Prometric clients.

The Supreme Council of Health (SCH) in Qatar, also a Prometric client, is looking to recruit Tunisian professionals, so the test center opening allows candidates to sit for exams in Tunisia for SCH tests developed and delivered by Prometric."
