NCS PEARSON, INC.

NCS PEARSON, INC. specializes in the design, delivery, and proctoring of high-stakes, computer-based assessments and certification examinations for federal agencies. Their core capabilities center on secure exam administration, digital testing platforms, and psychometric support services, including test development, validation, and reporting systems such as Q-GLOBAL and proprietary learning management integrations. The contractor provides end-to-end testing infrastructure for credentialing programs across defense, aviation, intelligence, and public service sectors, with deep expertise in proctoring compliance, exam security protocols, and scalable virtual testing environments. Key differentiators include their ability to deploy standardized, audit-ready testing workflows for mission-critical personnel selection and certification, particularly in environments requiring strict adherence to federal security and accessibility standards. The company maintains consistent relationships with the Department of Defense, delivering commercial testing services for military training, special education programs, and technical certification pathways. They also support the Department of Veterans Affairs in administering clinical and occupational assessments, the Department of State in foreign service selection exams, and the Federal Aviation Administration in air traffic controller skills evaluations. Their work for the General Services Administration and Department of Homeland Security further demonstrates cross-agency credibility in federal workforce credentialing. Primarily focused on Educational Support Services (NAICS 611710), NCS PEARSON, INC. operates at the intersection of workforce development and standardized assessment, with secondary expertise in testing laboratories (541380) and professional development training (611430). Their market positioning is defined by precision in high-stakes certification delivery rather than broad educational consulting. As a 2L entity headquartered in Minneapolis, MN, the company operates as a commercial provider without federal certifications, relying on proven technical execution and secure testing infrastructure to serve federal clients nationwide.
