Deleting a centre

In Surpass, a “centre” is a virtual space in which tests are created by users and delivered to candidates. All items, users, candidates, subjects, tests, and test forms are associated with a particular parent centre. A Surpass centre may be linked to a physical location like a school or workplace or it can be a purely digital environment.

Deleting a centre removes all data from Surpass. Once deleted, a centre cannot be restored.

This article explains how to delete a centre in the Centres screen of Setup, including details on all prerequisite steps.
