In ALL situations, it is mandatory for students to contact their subject teacher in order to arrange for your tests or test passwords to be sent either to a testing site or a test supervisor.
Testing update:
Cross-enrolled students can make arrangements to write their test at their home school or choose from our list of testing centers. All costs associated with testing for cross-enrolled students is at the student’s expense. Online supervision is not an option for cross-enrolled students.
Full-time students (school age or adult) should contact their teacher to write their test with our online supervisor.
Writing Tests
If you are a student enrolled in the Grade 8-12 Program at NIDES, you may be asked to write a test for your course. It is important to note that each course has different expectations, so please contact your teacher when you are getting close to writing your first test to make sure you know what the expectations are.
For local students (Comox Valley and surrounding areas) there are a few locations that you can access to write a test.
