About
The Computer Science Proficiency Assessment (CSPA™) is a comprehensive standardized exam for software engineers. The CSPA assesses your technical knowledge, skills, and abilities across a broad array of topics. We write the CSPA exam questions, software engineers take the test, and we share the results with employers and schools.
MARKETING & SALES:
We actively find software engineers to take our test, whether direct or through partnerships. On the other side, we actively partner with employers looking to hire.
PRODUCT:
We build the exam content manage system, a proctoring framework, and autograding system, as well as a SaaS employer product to browse the candidate database.
