A Partnership Built on Trust and Expertise

"I feel a lot more confident now than I did a year ago, thanks to Kryterion. I used to think we would need to double our staff just to keep up with the demand without risking content leaks." Rachel Canetta, Sr. Manager, Certification, Databricks

The Challenge

  • As exam deliveries doubled year-over-year, the risks multiplied: content exposure, proxy testing, and rising candidate anxiety due to technical and logistical hurdles.
  • Robust test security became a necessary factor as overexposure of the exam content and increased cheating were threatening the integrity of their certification program.

The Solution

  • Enhanced Proctoring Measures: With Kryterion's vigilant proctors, test-takers were closely monitored, reinforcing Databricks' commitment to security and deterring potential cheaters.
  • Hybrid Exam Delivery: Addressing the technical obstacles and increasing the accessibility of candidates, Databricks introduced in-person testing options at Kryterion's global test centers.
  • Continuous Content Revitalization: With Kryterion’s support, Databricks was enabled to introduce new exam content to replace leaked items.

Results

  • Test-takers were offered flexible options, including test center delivery, which reduced the technical and logistical burden.
  • Positive feedback from candidates and other stakeholders illustrated the value of stringent security measures in maintaining certification integrity.
  • Doubling certification deliveries year-over-year to offer more candidates opportunities, while protecting the credibility of its certification program.
  • FUTURE OUTLOOK
