Orlando, FL, May 12, 2006 --(PR.com)-- American Board of Urgent Care Medicine (ABUCM) announces the deployment of its certification examinations through KRYTERION’s secure, online testing system - Webassessor.

“We have been searching for a right online test-delivery provider for some time,” said Dr. Franz Ritucci, Executive Director for ABUCM. “We were initially interested in Webassessor due to its ability to assist us in managing our program and securely delivering our certification tests over the internet. But as we began to work with KRYTERION team we discovered a commitment to customer service and a wealth of industry experience that made the selection process very simple.”

Through a powerful, highly secure and easy-to-use interface, Webassessor allows users to take control of their testing and certification programs.

“We a pleased to be working with AAUCM,” said KRYTERION CEO, David Foster Ph.D., “Although the current version of Webassessor sets the standard for secure online testing-it is just the beginning, More and more forward thinking programs are discovering the advantages of delivering their high-stakes exams in a secure, online environment.”
