Allied’s Proctoring
Service is available for all Texas real estate and appraisal licensing courses
that require a proctored final. As a
student, this means you can easily and conveniently utilize a proctor from the comfort
of home, saving you time and money (as much as $207 for your Texas real estate
courses!)
In-House
Proctor Included
That’s
right, Allied’s Proctoring Service is included at no
additional cost and is part of the tuition you’re already paying for the
applicable courses. This service includes an unbiased third-party who
will verify your identity and oversee you taking the course exam.
So, you’re ready for your final - what do you do next? To schedule a
proctor appointment, you can access the “Proctor” button in your course’s toolbar.
From there, you will launch a calendar of available dates and times. Simply
choose the ones you prefer for your final. Once it’s scheduled, you will
receive a confirmation email with additional instructions.

Benefits of Using Allied’s Proctoring Service
Here are just a few of the
reasons you’ll benefit from enrolling in an Allied course that includes the
proctoring service:
·
Save money - Start with a school that includes a
proctoring service as part of the tuition! This will save you money (as much as
$23 per Texas real estate course!) Using a third-party service costs extra. Why pay more when it can be included with what
you’ve already paid?
·
Save time –Instead of driving to your local library, you can save time
and simply log onto your computer. There’s
no drive time, traffic time or walking time to get to your testing location. It’s
all on your time!
·
Convenience – Take your final from the comfort of home. That’s right -
with Allied’s proctoring service, you don’t have to go anywhere. What is more
convenient than that? You just need access to a computer with a webcam.
·
Ease – What could be easier than logging into your computer and getting
started with your final? After your appointment is set up, just come back on
the assigned day and time of your final and complete a 5 – 10 minute check in.
After that, you’re on your way!
·
Get a Leg Up – You’ll be ahead! While your friends or classmates are
trying to find a proctor or travelling to a testing site, you’ll be at home
ready to sign in and get started on your final.
