Our Story
BrightShift began in 2003, building professional certification testing systems for leading certifying bodies like the AICPA, NCARB, Microsoft, Citrix, NCLEX, Juniper Networks, and others. As we grew our expertise, we saw an opportunity: use the same innovative technology to help students in workforce readiness programs. Since then, we’ve provided secure, user-friendly educational software systems for entry-level certification testing to middle school students, high school students, post-secondary students, teachers, and administrators.
Our Philosophy for Modern Certification Testing
You shouldn’t have to struggle with complex technology just to ensure your students’ success.
Teachers, administrators, and certifying bodies should be free to concentrate on student career readiness and credential achievement rather than being burdened by the intricacies of technology.
