COVID-19 Update - ACC Live Proctoring System

ACC has developed an online live proctoring platform designed to accommodate Chromebook users, as well as students with Windows or Mac desktop computers, and laptops – the platform does not support iPad users at this time because of iPad split-screen sharing limitations. For students with iPads, Respondus Monitor is the preferred solution.

ACC Testing Center personnel will monitor the student live through Google Meet while the student takes the exam. ACC Online Live Proctoring should be the second choice of proctoring because it is also free for students and provides the added benefit of cost reduction for the College. This option is not available 24/7 and requires advance scheduling for faculty and students.

ACC Online Live Proctoring Hours of Operation:
Monday – Thursday: 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.
Friday: 9 a.m. - 3 pm
Saturday: 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Sunday: 12 p.m. - 5 p.m.

Student Requirements for ACC Online Live Proctoring (Google Meet):

Your professor will provide you with an Exam ID for the exam you need to take, along with the link to the ACC Live Proctor request form. Once you have that information, you will be able to request an appointment.

Please note the following:

  • You must use your ACC email address to access the form.
  • A 48-hour notice is needed to organize the test session.

You will receive 2 emails that serve as confirmation of your appointment:

1. An email with the subject "Appointment Request Approved - Confirmation #"

  • This contains general information concerning appointments that you should review. If the email isn't in your inbox, please check your spam folder.

2. An invitation to a Google Event with “Invitation: Appointment #” in the subject line.

  • The Google event will automatically be added to your ACC Google calendar. Be sure to RSVP "Yes" to verify your intent to test and use the link there to join the Meet at the time of your appointment. If you have questions regarding the exam itself, please contact your instructor.

The on-campus Testing Centers provide an atmosphere conducive to administering tests for ACC credit courses.
