Re: CCIE R&S Lab Exam at Pearson ?

Hi,

The exam will not be conducted at any Pearson exam center. Instead it will
be administered at Pearson Professional Centers which are designed for
secure, high-stakes professional exams and have been used by medical, legal
and other examination boards for
over eight years.

So I suppose there's different between the normal Pearson center and the
Pearson Professional Center ...
