According to this Pearson Vue FAQ, Microsoft is going to stop testing with Pearson Vue. No idea why, and i have found no official announcement of this. Rather interesting, because most testing centers located near Horgen are primarily Pearson Vue.

Information from Vue directly is spotty:

We have not been informed of the reason for this decision. Feedback we have received from Microsoft employees and partners over the years has been overwhelmingly positive. Please contact Microsoft for details.

And things seem to happen rather quickly:

Between now and 31st August 2007, Pearson VUE can register candidates for any Microsoft exam that is delivered by 31st December 2007, via any means of payment. After 31st August Pearson VUE will only be able to register candidates with pre-paid vouchers, as long as the exam is delivered by 31st December 2007.

Does anyone know more about this?

Update: This Prometric document seems to confirm this move.

Update 2:
It’s official now
