Frequently Asked Questions | Test Proctoring Request Form

At some point you will probably have students with disabilities in your class who require testing accommodations such as extended time, a separate room, or special equipment. You will have access to an online letter of accommodation that will tell you what academic accommodations the student will need. Students are also expected to bring their need for accommodations directly to your attention at the beginning of the course.

Academic departments are encouraged to arrange accommodations and proctoring at the local level when they have available space and staff to serve as proctors. Focusing proctoring arrangements initially at the departmental level allows the faculty member to have greater control over the test-taking process.

If your department does not have the staff to provide proctoring for disabled students' accommodated exams, our centralized proctoring service is available to assist you. You may designate a GSI or other department staff to coordinate this request.

If you are able to provide your own proctor, but assistive technology is required and outlined in the accommodation letter, make arrangements directly with the Assistive Technology Specialist, Lucy Greco (lgreco@berkeley.edu). Deadline for reservations is two weeks. Note that Ms. Greco does not proctor students. She only reserves a room and the technology; you must supply the proctor. For Braille copies of syllabi, handouts, and tests; please get in touch with Jim Gammon at 2-0518 or via email: (jgammon@berkeley.edu).

Please contact the Campus Proctoring Service (643-4691,  proctoring@berkeley.edu) if you have any questions or concerns.

Cordially,
Frankie López
Campus Proctoring Coordinator
