Certified SolidWorks Tests now Online? 3

[rjason71]

I noticed SWorks is now offering there CSWA and CSWP tests online and you can take them for free by requesting a voucher.

Has anyone received a voucher they had sent for? I am still waiting for mine (about a week).

This just started recently... I knew about this about a month or more ago. It could take up to 7-10 Business days. That is usually SW policy.

Is the free pricing temporary or permanent? Like, should I request a voucher right now?

 

[ctopher]

I requested for it a week ago, but no response yet.

I mentioned this unseen here thread559-199224

FYI, I received my voucher last night.

Has anybody had their VAR give conflicting dates on when the voucher is no longer valid. When I was confirming that you could take the test online my VAR is claiming that they've heard that Dec. 1 is the cutoff, even though the website claims Nov.1. Apparently they've heard conflicting reports from SW.

 

[SBaugh]

We got a message from SW on Nov 1. I think your VAR has Mistaken the date.

That was my assumption as well, but I figured I'd throw it out there and see what other VAR's have been telling people.

 

[ctopher]

I received my voucher last night also, but the file will not run. It locks up.

Has anybody else had that problem. I would be very disappointed if I miss this one time opportunity....

...One time because my company will never agree to it once there's a price tag back on it.

My co-worker and I submitted voucher requests on the same day, this past Monday. He got his yesterday as well. I am still waiting for mine.

Have you read faq731-376 to make the best use of Eng-Tips Forums?

 

[ctopher]

MadMango, is his running OK? I can't seem to get mine working. I run the file and it just sits there.

I had no problems downloading and running the "Virtual Tester" program. I had to fill out some personal info and eventual I ended up at the "start test" screen.

I chose not to continue But i couldn't close the program unless I killed it in the task manager so I left it running.

It states there are 18 questions and you have 180 minutes to complete the test.

 

[ctopher]

Thanks. I don't get that far. I have to call SW.

Has anybody successfully taken the test via this voucher system?

 

[rjason71]

I plan on taking it Friday night after the kiddies are in bed.
