Steps for Students Steps for Proctors
1. Find a Proctor
A proctor is someone who is willing to supervise you as you take your exam online. Proctors should be found very soon after registering for the course and must be renewed each semester.
Suggested contacts for proctors: College/University testing center, or distance learning staff, public or school librarian, company or hospital educator, school teachers, or principals. Proctors cannot be related to you in any way, be a friend, roommate, coworker, supervisor, someone you supervise, a current professor, coach, or church official. Proctors must have a business phone, address, and e-mail.  Public e-mail, such as yahoo, hotmail or AOL is not acceptable.

If your proctor requires a fee to administer your exams, it is your responsibility to pay it.
