Below are some suggestions to prepare for your quiz or exam:

For additional information, please review Canvas-ProctorU Test-Taker Walkthrough or visit the ProctorU Test Taker Resource Center (Links to an external site.).

I am also expecting you all to adhere to the University policies on Academic Dishonesty. All work, including exams, should be completed independently. Have pride in your education and do the best work possible.

Make sure that you have a reliable Internet connection before starting the exams. You will not be able to restart the exam at another time.

Once you have downloaded the Proctor U Extension...this is how it should work. Scroll the video to about 8:30min.
