Student Responsibilities
- Examinations are to be administered to you by an approved proctor on a date that is mutually convenient. The student is responsible for selecting a qualified proctor that must be approved by the college. Your proctor must be a responsible and reputable third party. A-B Tech reserves the right to verify proctor qualifications, require additional evidence of eligibility, or require a different proctor to be selected. All proctors are subject to approval.
- Students must provide the desired proctor with the Examination Proctor Policy and A-B Tech Proctor Agreement. The Proctor will complete and submit the agreement to A-B Tech. Students and Proctors may assume the Proctor is approved unless otherwise notified by A-B Tech. If the proctor has already submitted an agreement to proctor for another A-B Tech student, no additional agreement is necessary.
- Any proctoring fees charged are the responsibility of the student.
