A current guide to AU online course exam requests, myAU scheduling, ProctorU remote invigilation, AU-approved in-person invigilators, ID checks, course contract end-date rules, and rebooking basics.
Athabasca exam preparation starts before the test day: students need the correct course exam, an approved invigilation route, enough lead time, matching ID details, a compliant testing space, and clarity on allowed materials.
Use these planning points before requesting or scheduling an AU online exam.
Students request exams through myAU using the Examination Request workflow after confirming the course exam and intended write date.
AU exams can be written online with ProctorU remote invigilation or with an AU-approved in-person invigilator/test centre, depending on course and location rules.
AU guidance commonly requires at least 10 days for ProctorU or established invigilator exam requests; new invigilator approval requires much earlier planning.
The selected exam date must be on or before the course contract end date unless AU grants an extension or another approved arrangement.
Remote exams require a matching ProctorU profile, valid photo ID, computer, webcam, microphone, stable internet, and a compliant testing space.
If an emergency prevents the scheduled sitting, AU exam access is limited after the original date, so students should rebook immediately.
AU exams are not just a ProctorU appointment. Students need the correct myAU Examination Request, course code, exam type, intended write date, and invigilation choice before the appointment can run smoothly.
ProctorU works for remote writing on a personal computer, while an AU-approved invigilator or testing centre may fit students who prefer an in-person environment or cannot meet remote testing requirements.
The course contract end date matters. Students should leave enough time for exam request processing, ProctorU or invigilator booking, accommodation arrangements, and emergency rebooking if a technical or personal issue occurs.
Remote students should complete equipment tests, confirm camera and microphone access, clear the workspace, verify ID/name matching, and know exactly which materials the course permits.

Athabasca University Online Exams are course exams requested through myAU and written under an approved invigilation arrangement. AU undergraduate exams are delivered online, with most students choosing either ProctorU remote invigilation on their own computer or an AU-approved in-person invigilator/test centre. Students should confirm the course exam type, book the invigilation appointment, and submit the AU Examination Request early enough for processing. AU guidance commonly requires at least 10 days for ProctorU or established AU-approved invigilator requests, while new invigilator approval can require substantially more lead time. Exams must be written on or before the course contract end date unless AU approves another arrangement. Preparation should cover the myAU request, ProctorU account setup, AU invigilator ID, valid photo ID, name matching, equipment checks, permitted materials, accessibility timelines, fees, and the limited emergency rebooking window.
Students use the myAU Examination Request workflow and choose the appropriate invigilation arrangement for the course and location.
