The National Board of Chiropractic Examiners experienced several computer-based testing issues last year that forced the board to suspend CBT testing until further notice. According to a recent NBCE press release, while recent tests of the new computer-based testing format were promising and point to a 2018 launch date, "Parts I, II, III, and Physiotherapy exams on January 19-21, March 2-4, and August 17-19, 2018 [will be administered] using the traditional paper-and-pencil format. We will re-introduce the CBT examinations into our schedules as soon as possible."
