This review is for Safe Food Systems as a Pearson Vue Testing Center - other than that, I have no idea what the facility actually does. I recently took two licensing tests (3-4.5 hour tests) a week apart at SFS and found the experience and atmosphere to be much more chill and relaxed compared to the actual Pearson Vue Testing Centers in Deerfield and Plantation. Since Covid, they've expanded their testing centers to more third party sites and I believe this is one of them. They still follow all of the testing rules and regulations but dividers between test takers are made of gator board, and I think the little wooden chair I got for the first test has seen better days. That said, I actually prefer it because the low key atmosphere relieved my testing anxiety. The testing facilitators are also super nice. Check in upstairs. Testing room downstairs with a moderator in the room who's on his laptop basically the entire time. Your belongings are locked in a bag that sits at your desk instead of in a locker. You can hear people entering/exiting the room/building (beeps) and getting up to use the restroom. Definitely not quiet but ear plugs and hand sanitizer are provided. Upstairs bathroom didn't lock. Downstairs bathroom locks. I got dropped off/picked up so parking wasn't an issue, but parking isn't available at the facility. I actually walked next door to Gordon food service store next door to make it easier getting picked up because their space is so awkward. They have a cool mural where I'm guessing the staff or building tenants park. Also found a used needle on the ground while waiting to get picked up the first time and got to watch kayakers go by to destress after my test. Overall though I didn't feel unsafe as I was aware of my surroundings. I hope Pearson continues to offer this testing center as an alternative to their Deerfield and Plantation location. read more
