Proctor Requirements:

The final examination for each course (for all except QAS 598S, QAS 599 and QAS 594S) and the Graduate Writing Exam will be proctored. In order to maximize security and assure testing integrity of the final examination, it will be the responsibility of each student to identify a proctor to be approved by the Academic Coordinator each term.

Ideally, this proctor would be the local American Society of Quality (ASQ) section Education and/or Certifiaction chairperson. The ASQ has an Education/Certification chairperson in each of their 250 plus sections located throughout the United States. These chairpersons coordinate local training and proctor the national ASQ quarterly certification examinations.

An alternate examination proctor must be a professional such as a minister, librarian, military officer, or local high school or college faculty member. The proctor will directly receive the examination via regular mail and administer it to the student in accordance with prearranged time constraints. The proctor's instructions include a requirement for the student to provide acceptable official document. After the student has completed the exam, the proctor will return it to the MSQA Office via regular mail.

NOTE: In some international locations, the Proctor may be required to fax the completed exam to the MSQA Office.

Submitting Proctor Information:

Your proctor information must be received and accepted by the MSQA office no later than October 31st for the fall, February 28th for the Spring term, and June 15th for the summer term. The MSQA office cannot mail your final exam to your proctor without first receiving your proctor information. Please submit the name, postal address, telephone number and qualification of your proctor to msqa@csudh.edu

Please note: No proctor information will be accepted after the due date stated above. The student may receive an incomplete in the course or a grade of "F" depending on the discretion of the instructor. Proctor information must be submitted each term by the student to guarantee that the final exam is sent to the correct person.
