Proctoring Information
ATTENTION STUDENTS: Please Read
Many courses require one or more proctored exams. Proctors serve an important role in maintaining the academic integrity of our program. Proctors are responsible for confirming the identity and supervising the student while taking exams to ensure that all rules are followed. Refer to your syllabus or the Fast Fact pages to determine if your course has proctored exams.
There are three options for having your exams proctored:
-

Outside Proctor
You can complete an Exam Request Form found on Blackboard or in your Forms packet and have your exams sent to an approved proctor.
For acceptable proctors, refer to the Exam Request Form found in the Forms Packet on Blackboard or sent with your syllabus. Questions regarding the appropriateness of a proctor should be directed to the Extended Studies office at 719.549.2162.
Students are responsible for identifying an acceptable proctor within the first two weeks of a course. Proctors must be approved by the Extended Studies office before exams will be sent, so it is a good idea to submit your proctor information early to ensure testing is not delayed. All exam requests will be processed after your course(s) drop deadline. Once processed, exams will be sent to your proctor within approximately 3 to 5 business days. Only one Exam Request Form is required for each course – all exams for a course will be sent to the proctor in one packet.
