Students taking a PTA course through distance education must have final exams proctored per current program proctoring guidelines noted on the forms below. Live exam proctoring is required for designated exams for students in the Military Bridge program. Proctors are selected by the student and must be approved by the course instructor several weeks in advance and follow guidelines on the required proctoring forms, available from the program web site. In general, supervisors may not serve as exam proctors.
New for Fall 2021: Remote proctoring via Proctorio is an option; contact course instructor for details or watch course announcements.
Students in the traditional (on-campus) PTA program are required to take the comprehensive exam for PTA 2840 on the LSC campus unless other arrangements for exam proctoring have been made by the student and approved by the course instructor. This will occur only in extenuating circumstances for traditional program students. Proctoring arrangements will require approximately 4-6 weeks lead time.
