SwVCC Becomes Test Site for Virginia Insurance Licensure


Southwest Virginia Community College has been a Pearson VUE testing center since 2001. Pearson Vue operates a network of more than 4,400 Authorized testing centers in 162 countries. In 2006, Pearson VUE acquired Promissor, a leading provider of knowledge measurement services. Promissor has a 25 year record of assessing and certifying professionals in the real estate, insurance, mortgage lending, contracting, employment, and healthcare industries.

In September 2007, Southwest Virginia Community College became an authorized Promissor test site for Virginia Insurance. One of the first candidates to register for the Property & Casualty Insurance licensure exam was Glenna McReynolds (pictured).

She was pleased to learn of the convenience and the close proximity of the SwVCC testing site. Glenna, a retired Wise County educator, works with her husband, Larry who is the owner/agent of State Farm Insurance in St. Paul, Virginia. Even though Glenna works in the insurance field, she remains active in education by teaching GED classes for Wise County. Larry and Glenna have two sons, Dr. Casey McReynolds who is a Radiologist in Abington and Raleigh McReynolds who is a Legal Analyst for Lexus Nexus. They are also very proud of two grandsons.

Prospective licensure candidates should go online at www.promissor.com to register for a licensure exam. Debbie McGlothlin is the SwVCC test site administrator. For additional information, contact Debbie at debbie.mcglothlin@sw.edu, 276.964.7674.
