Exam Accommodations
ALC Testing Services
We have a full service testing centre that is designed to meet the needs of students who encounter barriers while writing exams. Offering individualized exam accommodations allows for an accessible testing environment. These supports may ensure a fair opportunity to demonstrate your learning.
Exam Booking
Students have the convenience of booking and tracking all exams using ClockWork. This user friendly software allows the student to schedule exams or quizzes and check upcoming bookings using the ClockWork Student Services Portal
Our office has designed an Exam Booking Manual which includes a step by step guide to scheduling exams, and contains a list of frequently asked exam booking questions.
If you need further assistance with booking exams, require a change to an existing booking, or need to cancel an exam, please e-mail our Exam Coordinator, at exam.accommodations@uleth.ca
