This recognition reflects our long-term commitment to social impact and the deep, sustained collaborations we continue to build with our state sector partners.

Key responsibilities include scheduling exams, processing results, handling access arrangements, managing data using systems such as iSAMS, and ensuring secure and compliant administration at all stages.
