Proctor Request - Military Students

Access Proctor Request Form for all military students

Military Proctor Guidelines Listed Below
Military students can take examinations for Thomas Edison State College courses, e-Pack® course and TECEP® exams using a proctor who meets the guidelines listed below. The College must first approve the proctor before any examinations can be mailed or completed. The proctor must be a neutral third party with no on-going relationship to the student nor can the proctor be currently attending Thomas Edison State College as a student.

In addition, the proctor should hold a position of responsibility, be able to communicate in English, and have no conflict of interest with either the student or Thomas Edison State College. Any full-time commissioned officer (CWO2 and above), serving on active duty, who is senior to the student in rank and not serving within the student’s direct chain of command, may fulfill this requirement.
