e-Learning Testing      top

Most administration of e-learning tests takes place at the Viewing Listening and Testing Center. Students may take their tests on a walk-in basis during hours of operation. The last test is given out no later than one hour prior to close, This is to ensure adequate time for testing. (Note: refer to your syllabus as some tests may require more than one hour and plan accordingly.) Correction of the tests does not occur at the VLTC, rather tests are forwarded to the instructor for correction.

To insure fairness for all students, these testing security procedures are enforced.
