Proctoring Services

Our Testing Center provides exam proctoring services (paper and pencil or computer-based) for distance education students attending other colleges.   The center is equipped with computers and internet connectivity, as well as desk space for administering paper-based exams.

For proctoring services, there is a $20.00 test-proctoring fee for each testing session. This must be paid in advance to the cashier at the Business Office located in the Administration Building.  Payments can be made in person or by phone by calling 828-395-1298, or for clarification, contact businessoffice@isothermal.edu

What is needed to request proctoring services?

We require examination dates and times to be scheduled at least two weeks in advance. Please keep in mind that we may not be able to accommodate your requested appointment time. 

Plan ahead to ensure you have time to seek another testing location if we cannot accommodate the request.

To request services, contact the testing center at testing@isothermal.edu and include the following in your email:

1. First and Last Name
2. Phone Number
3. Email Address
4. Course Information
5. Institution and Instructor Name
6. Dates your test must be completed
7. Test Format (computer-based or paper)

Your instructor must approve the use of our proctoring services. After the testing date and time have been approved, it is your responsibility to notify your instructor that you will be testing through our proctoring services.

The institution requesting test proctoring services is responsible for providing all test materials.  This includes books, special paper, graphs, texts, charts, tables, etc.  The institution or student must also provide pre-addressed, postage-paid shipping materials if the test is to be returned by mail.
