EXAM PROTOCOLS

  • Always bring ID – school ID is ideal for non-diploma, only gov’t ID for diplomas.
  • Plan to NOT have any personal, electronic devices – leave them in the locker.  If you are not comfortable with doing so, you will check it in at the exam room – and that will slow down entry so arrive earlier if you are checking in a phone.
  • Any phone that is turned on, active or in the possession of the student during the exam (even accidentally)– will automatically have their exam invalidated – same for diploma level courses.  This means it won’t be counted and you will have completely wasted your time.
  • Can bring food and water into the exam – must be in label free, clear containers.
  • Can wear a hoody, or similar, but expect to have it checked by the supervisor upon entry.
  • All written exams are done on vretta secure software, and students should know their Alberta Student Number (ASN), but those numbers will be provided during the exam.  The ASN is not the same at the CBE numbers.
  • Some supplies – pencils, paper, dictionaries, some calculators will be available in each testing room, but in limited supply so to be sure,  bring your own.
  • All student bags, jackets, hats, etc, all get left at the front of the exam room.  Please bring as little of that as possible – or ideally, use the locker.
  • Exam room locations are posted each day, on the BB at the front door.  Students need to check that board when they arrive to see their writing location.
  • All accommodations are handled in the LC.  If a student is aware of a confirmed accommodation that was added by their teacher, remind them to go directly to the LC for their exam space.
  • All calculators are cleared, by staff, when entering an exam that requires one.
  • If you need a break, or to use a washroom, you will be escorted to the washroom by a supervisor, and escorted back.  Same goes for a break, a supervisor must be with you at all times.
  • All exams start at 9 AM and you can enter late, up to 10 AM.  If you arrive later than that, you will NOT be allowed to enter.
  • All students MUST remain in the exam space for at least 1 hour – so you can’t leave the examination process until 10 AM, at the earliest.
  • Attendance will be taken during the exam.
  • Diploma exams go 6 hours per day, so whenever a student finishes any exam they are requested to be quiet and leave the school unless they are working with a teacher or have another exam shortly after.
  • Any issues that come up will be referred to the exam supervisor and the exam administrator (admin) for a follow up.
