Identifying a test proctor outside of the Killeen area
The following are recommended as appropriate testing centers:
- Central Texas College Continental or International Site.
- Central Texas College Service Area Site.
- Community College or University testing center under the supervision of the Testing Director.
- High School under the supervision of principal, counselor, or faculty.
- Library facilities under supervision of Librarian or assistant.
- Army or other service branch Education Center.
- Army or other service branch Education Center with staff members designated for testing.
The test proctor must be a neutral third party professional employed with one of the above educational institutions or have a bachelor’s degree. Active duty service members may use an active duty soldier with the rank of E-5 or above, who has, as a minimum, an associate degree, and who is not in the chain of command of the student soldier. If you are not able to use one of the above facilities, provide a detailed explanation in the comments field of your Test Proctor Submission Form.
Proctors must have an official email address that has been assigned to them such as @ctcd.edu, @killeen.tx.us, or @us.army.mil. Personal email addresses such as yahoo, hotmail, or gmail cannot be used.
The following are NOT appropriate test sites/proctors:
- Friends or relatives
- Personal Residence
Please make arrangements for testing at the beginning of your class to prevent delays, then submit the Test Proctor Submission Form to identify your test site. You must provide all information requested before your form will be processed.
Registering proctors who have never proctored for CTC
Once you have made contact with your potential test site and secured its hours of operation, testing procedures, and contact information, submit the Test Proctor Submission Form. You should receive an auto response confirming that we received your form. The CTC Testing Office will notify the proctor of approval and provide access information. To check the status of your Test Proctor Submission Form, contact the CTC Testing Office at online.testing@ctcd.edu.
You will make arrangements with your proctor for test dates and times. Consult your syllabus or contact your instructor to determine which exams you must take. Test sites will not have this information; you must provide it.
Note: You must submit the Test Proctor Submission Form even if you have submitted it previously to your instructor and/or the Admissions department. Test Proctor Submission Forms are not processed until a week after class begins.
Proctors already proctoring for CTC
Once you have made contact with your potential test site, please inquire if they are already registered as a CTC proctor. If they are, you do NOT need to submit a Test Proctor Submission Form. The test site will already have the ability to access your exams. You will still need to make arrangements for test dates and times based on the testing windows provided in your syllabus, and bring your course and test information with you to the test site.
Normally, test site information is processed in 5-7 business days.
eArmyU / GoArmyEd Students
Each installation provides proctored testing for eArmyU students. You do not need to submit the Test Proctor Submission Form if using a designated eArmyU test site. You should obtain the location and phone number of the testing site at your installation through the eArmyU portal, or contact the CTC Testing Office at online.testing@ctcd.edu.
If you have extenuating circumstances
Service members with extenuating circumstances such as deployments should contact the CTC Testing Office at online.testing@ctcd.edu to make alternate testing arrangements. Please provide a detailed explanation of the circumstances. Alternate sites are considered on a case by case basis and are not guaranteed to be approved.
Re-scheduling tests
Occasionally situations arise which make it impossible for online students to take exams within the published schedule. It is solely the instructor’s decision to approve re-scheduling. Students are responsible for securing that approval prior to the last day of testing.
Coordinate with the test proctor and schedule a new testing time in advance. Students must supply the test proctor with the instructor’s written permission to reschedule. Late exams cannot be administered without the instructor’s approval.
Requests to re-schedule an exam should occur rarely and only in cases of emergency.
