Company Headquarters
Computer Assisted Testing Service, Inc. (CATS) is located in Burlingame, CA about 10 miles south of San Francisco, and within driving distance to many of the world renowned greater Bay Area attractions: from Silicon Valley, capital of computer chip makers, to the Valley of the Moon where California wine makers produce some of the finest wines in the world.

Company History
Computer Assisted Testing Service, Inc. (CATS) is a privately owned corporation. For corporate matters, please contact Geraldine Celestre, President, at Geraldine.Celestre@catstest.com. The company, incorporated in 1988, initially operated in various service related projects for local ground schools. Its founders were aviation professionals involved in flight training including simulators, air charter, and Fixed Base Operators at local airports. In 1991, CATS welcomed the opportunity to broaden its business services to the aviation community as the Federal Aviation Administration was looking to computerize its Airmen and Mechanics knowledge based examinations. CATS developed the software, and hardware configurations for the administration of these 70 different exams. This investment was rewarded with the selection of CATS as one of only three FAA Computer Testing Designees in the world. In January 1993 the proprietary software/hardware package (our "turn-key operation") began its use in the field at 20 different permanent test centers. By 1994, CATS had enough test center area coverage to be able to administer tests for a Federal Communications Commission Cole Manager. We began administering 8 different FCC radio operator licensing examinations. CATS has currently over 400 geographically distributed testing locations worldwide. Our overseas centers include Puerto Rico, Guam, Germany, South Korea, and Japan.

Business Development
We are continuously seeking to increase testing area coverage to maximize candidates' choices for finding quality testing centers nearby. CATS also has the technology, and staff capacity to expand its business base to include new services, and ventures. Our future testing administrations will benefit clients from various governmental agencies, certification/licensing organizations, and companies from the private sector. Our future ancillary services will include but not be limited to vehicle registrations, and photographic identification cards.
