Earlier in the year, PMI® had associated with Pearson, increasing the number of tests centers to 5000. PMI® had also introduced a proctored exam option for CAPM® and PMI-ACP® certifications. While the earlier attempts were designed to improve the examination experience alone, the launch of Alexa skills will enhance the overall process of customer registration.

Voice technologies are extensively being used in almost all the business sectors and functionalities and are gaining popularity by the hours. Several surveys support the fact that the appreciation for voice technologies has increased drastically in recent years. Capgemini Research Institute has indicated that in the coming years, the preference of voice assist technologies over mobile apps or websites is going to increase by 40%.

PMI® is also planning to expand the scope of the application of voice technologies to the creation of customizable Flash briefings and integrating user authentication to provide a personalized experience. While the implementation of voice-technology is going to make a substantial improvement in customer experience, PMI® is planning to take it a step further by introducing the service to other devices like Google Assist along with adding conversational capabilities with other globally popular messaging platforms like Wechat and WhatsApp.
