Can I take a proctored test at my high school (or other non-Kirkwood location)?

Yes, high school students enrolled in online courses at Kirkwood can have their exams proctored by an individual at their high school. The same process applies to anyone testing at non-Kirkwood testing location. Here is a quick rundown of the process:

 

  1. The student finds an acceptable proctor (often a counselor or librarian) and completes the “Testing at Non-Kirkwood Locations” form.
  2. The Test Center will vet the proctor to ensure they meet the requirements (e.g., not related to the student, proctoring will take place in an institutional setting and not in a private residence, etc.)
  3. The Test Center will send exam instructions directly to the proctor, and notify the student that the proctor has been provided the instructions.
  4. The proctor can reach out to the Test Center (319-398-5456) if they have any questions or complications with the proctoring process.
