Submit a Proctored Event or Make-up Exam

New January 2025!

All Proctored Events and Make-Up Exams utilizing Testing Services at any Ozarks Tech location must submit the Faculty Exam Request through RegisterBlast.

If you are using Proctorio for your proctored event or make-up exam, you must also submit the exam information through RegisterBlast.

Follow these steps to use RegisterBlast:

1. Enable RegisterBlast in each course. (You only need to do this once per semester)

2. Add a new Exam Submission (Faculty Request).

    • Once you submit the exam request, Testing Services will review and approve the request. Then your students will be able to schedule for Springfield Campus. Students taking exams at other campuses and centers will schedule those exams through that location’s Testing Services page.
    • Note: All campuses and centers can access the faculty submissions. To reduce confusion all requests for proctored events and make-up exams must be submitted through RegisterBlast. This provides students with the most flexibility and ensures all Testing Centers have access to the information.

The easiest way for faculty and students to access RegisterBlast is to use the menu link in Canvas.

Proctored Events Resources are Open or Closed:

  • Open resources – this means your students will be allowed open resources (this includes books, notes, AI tools, etc.)
  • No resources – this means your students will only be allowed scratch paper, pen/pencil.

For more detailed information on resources and step-by-step guides please see the Faculty Resources Canvas Course Testing Services Module.

Note: Resource allocation for Proctorio is handled through settings in Proctorio and are not related to the R or NR identification for physical test centers.

Set up an alternative to a proctored event/quiz in my online class

Great!  The more pedagogically sound the proctored event can be — the better.  Nothing is worse for students or testing staff than a proctored event that isn’t helpful to the students’ academic progress.  Please feel free to think broadly about how to use your students’ time most wisely.

If you’re ready to try something new, first, please work directly with your department chair.  Then, check out resources offered through the Center for Academic Innovation, including instructional design.

Review the video from my students who used Proctorio

To view the Proctorio Gradebook, navigate to the quiz in Canvas you’d like to review. You’ll see a View Proctorio Gradebook on the right side of the screen. Clicking that will allow you to verify students’ identities and review exam videos.
