External Exams
The Center for Access and Accommodations approves testing accommodations for course exams which are created and produced by COD faculty. There may be exams within a course or exams that are taken after a program is completed which are externally produced and regulated. Often, these are exams that a student will take to earn a certification or licensure from a company or the state. The Center does not manage accommodations for these exams.
Approving accommodations is at the sole discretion of the external agency which produces and regulates the exam. Below is a list of externally regulated exams familiar to COD; clicking on the name of the exam will take you to the appropriate information about requesting accommodations. Additional questions should be directed to the exam manufacturer.
