Proctor groups are generated automatically for administrations, but you also can manually create proctor groups that can be assigned to a school in or out of your org scope.

NOTE: A class may have students being administered assessments in multiple proctor groups, but the student results will still be associated with their class. Administrations with a manually created proctor group will have a unique test code and proctor password. 

You may want to manually create a proctor group when:

• A class is divided into multiple proctor groups, each taking the assessment in several different locations within the school, or offsite.
• Students with the "Extra Time" accommodation are taking the assessment in a separate room.
• Students taking a make-up session from different classrooms are being proctored together at a later date.

Create a Proctor Group:

• Go to Test Management > Administrations.
• In the appropriate admin card, select View in the Proctor Groups menu.
• Select Create Group.
