Administrators and Counselors Proctoring

Just like face-to-face courses, Advanced Scholars courses contain exams which are administered in a secure test-taking environment. To accomplish this, UNL relies on proctors within a student’s local school.
Shortly before the semester begins, we will ask that your school identify a proctor (or proctors) who will help administer exams and quizzes, as required by the specific course. Proctors are determined by the local high school, and are typically counselors, teachers, administrators, or other certificated school staff.
For more information about the proctoring requirements of specific courses, check the Advanced Scholars Proctor Chart.
Advanced Scholars proctors are required to:
• Uphold the University of Nebraska–Lincoln’s standards for academic honesty
• Administer the examination(s) as per the instructions provided by the faculty
• Monitor the student during the examination
• To maintain the security of any proctor codes used/issued by UNL Schools will be required to have the proctor(s) associated with Advanced Scholars courses sign a proctor agreement. This form verifies proctors are aware of the requirements and pledge to uphold the academic integrity within all Advanced Scholars courses. The agreement is to be returned to the Advanced Scholars Program Coordinator prior to the beginning of the semester of course offerings.
Using EDU
Most online UNL courses use an electronic testing system for exams, called EDU. With EDU proctors simply log students into the web-based test, and then monitor the student as they complete their exam.
