ALEKS PPL: Proctored Assessment

ALEKS PPL: (1) initial knowledge check (unproctored assessment), (2) studying in personalized learning modules (at least three hours), (3) complete a proctored assessment (scheduled with ProctorU or hosted by Chico State).

Make sure that you have created an ALEKS PPL account and completed Step 1 and 2 in ALEKS PPL prior to scheduling a proctored ALEKS PPL assessment with ProctorU.

Signing up and scheduling with ProctorU

ProctorU is a live online proctoring service that Chico State contracts with to provide additional scheduling options for completing a proctored ALEKS PPL assessment.

After completing Step 1 and 2 in ALEKS PPL:

1: Create a ProctorU account using your Wildcat email account and agree to the terms and conditions.

2: Find a date and time that works for you to complete a proctored ALEKS PPL assessment. Schedule at least 72 hours in advance to avoid late scheduling fees. Plan to have three hours available for check in, system checks, proctoring instructions, and the two-hour ALEKS PPL assessment.

3: Book and confirm! Pay the $10 proctoring fee. (Additional fees may apply for on demand scheduling.)

4: Prepare and take your proctored ALEKS PPL assessment during your scheduled time.

5: Review your assessment results and major-related course(s) advised for your first semester.

College of Engineering, Computer Science, and Construction Management (ECC) majors should consult the major advising chart(opens in new window) on the ECC ALEKS PPL pages.

Completion of at least three hours of learning modules is required before a proctored assessment.
You must wait at least 48 hours before re-assessing. Use that time to review ALEKS PPL modules.
You can take up to four proctored assessments. After attempting a second assessment speak with the Developmental Math Coordinator before your third attempt. Jennifer McKee jnmckee@csuchico.edu.
Chrome is the recommended browser for ALEKS PPL.
Free technical support is provided by ProctorU. Test your equipment and ask questions about the proctoring process before you begin.
Equipment needed: high-speed Internet connection, webcam, Windows or Apple OS, government-issued ID.
If you need accessibility or testing accommodations, go to Accessibility Resource Center. Arrangements must be made at least two weeks in advance of taking the ALEKS PPL Assessment.
