Approved SmarterProctoring Academic Institutions

Students residing within a fifty-mile radius of WTCC are expected to test in the eLearning Testing Center unless special circumstances are demonstrated.  Students requesting an Alternate Proctoring Institution (API) are responsible for having the API approved by their WTCC course instructor. 

All proctored exams must be administered within an educational setting, i.e. academic institution with an official school email address, or employer within an educational setting or military base.  Military personnel may make arrangements for proctored testing with the command educational officer. Students may not use personal friends, colleagues, or family members as proctors.

Students should log into their Blackboard account and select the relevant course.  Select the “Tools” link on the left side of the instructor’s course page and select the SmarterProctoring icon. 

Enter a zip code and select the desired proctor and schedule appointment.  Inform WTCC instructor of approved Alternate Proctoring Institution (API).

If API is not listed in SmarterProctoring, please contact preferred academic institution and request they register an account with SmarterProctoring to expedite the transfer of testing materials with WTCC. 

If you are unable to schedule an appointment with your selected API, please contact your instructor regarding the API Contract, which must be completed and signed, then approved by your instructor at least five (5) business days before the opening of the relevant testing window.
