Hi Kim,

I don't have your e-mail so I'm leaving you a message here on CSRN.  I saw your comments in the CRB Minutes today (6/15/16). 

THANK YOU for speaking up for reporters who have *privacy concerns* about online testing with third-party vendors.  I actually walked out of a PV pre-paid exam when I saw web cams and people waiting in line to be fingerprinted.  The days of NCRA live-proctor testing -- where you show up with a picture ID and no one takes your picture or archives or datamines your personal info -- are GONE and I don't think that's necessarily a good thing. 

I even asked my former instructor at (what used to be) Argonaut if she would be available to proctor a live exam.  She said yes.  She also alerted me to this issue of *online-only testing* now pending before the CA CRB. 

Why can't we have a choice of testing either with a live proctor or online, especially when there is a qualified, experienced live proctor available? 

Thanks.
