About the Exam (Video Security Systems)
The exam will be administered on a computer.
Video Security Systems is the first NICET program where examinees will take the test on computers instead of pencil and paper. Computer-based testing (CBT) will allow NICET to extend several benefits to our customers: more flexible exam dates and appointment times; immediate scheduling and confirmation; and quicker exam scoring. NICET has teamed with Thompson Prometric to offer proctored computer-based tests at over 200 Prometric sites. Note: these tests will not be given at NICET test centers.
The exam will be closed-book.
You will not be permitted to use standards or other references during the test. You are expected to be familiar with the references included in the content outline. The "Selected General References" are a few (not the only) resources that could help you prepare for the exam and/or expand your industry knowledge.
Exam content is described in the Content Outline.
Video Security Systems does not have a traditional Program Detail Manual. For now, a description of possible exam topics can be found in the Content Outline. Designed by a committee of subject matter experts, the content outline identifies the knowledge and skills expected of VSS technicians throughout progressive stages (Levels) in their careers.
