Online Testing - Instructions for Faculty

New this year: A student can only book online tests when faculty have entered the testing date and time into the Test Wizard. Faculty have suggested this change to ensure the accuracy of test times.

Please remember:

  • Students registered with Disability Services must book their tests 7 calendar days before the test date.
  • All Doon students will be expected to use the Test Wizard to book a test.
  • If faculty change the date, time or duration after the deadline, it will be considered a new test booking and require seven days notice from the new date.
  • Disability Services does not support pop quizzes but if you feel your course requires it, please contact the student’s counselor 7 days before the quiz.

Online Booking with the Test Wizard (Doon & Cambridge Campus only)

Students cannot book a test online until it has been entered into the Test Wizard by faculty.

  • As soon as a test has been announced faculty should log-in to the Test Wizard to enter the test date, time and duration (and Test Instructions, if available).
  • Please indicate if a computer is required when entering the test.
  • Once the test has been entered in the Test Wizard, students will be able to book the test.

To use the Test Wizard:

  • Login to the College Portal (Faculty tab) and select Disability Test Booking or;
  • Login in to the Student Portal (Services tab).

Six days before the test, the system will generate an email to faculty listing the students that are registered to write a test with Disability Services. It is important to follow the email instructions.

**If faculty have not entered the test into the “Test Wizard” 7 days before the test date, the student will contact the D.S. office and book the test according to the information they believe is correct.
