ProctorU Selected as Preferred Online Proctoring Provider Across PA Community College System

HOOVER, Ala., May 21, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- It was announced today that the Pennsylvania Commission for Community Colleges has selected ProctorU as their preferred online proctoring partner, serving all 14 campuses that make up the community college system. Prior to selection as the preferred partner, ProctorU had already been providing online proctoring services backed by artificial intelligence to effectively meet the diverse needs of several institutions within the college system.

The Commission stated ProctorU was chosen because of their array and quality of services. "Their live proctoring services are top notch," said Alex Plachuta, interim dean of E-Learning & Academic Technology at Delaware County Community College and chairperson of the PA Commission for Community Colleges Online Affinity Group. "And their student identity verification process is simple and reliable," Plachuta added.

Identity authentication was another important criterion for choosing a system-wide provider. ProctorU recently received its second patent for their student identity verification technology, a core component of the company's proctoring solution.

Utilizing one online proctoring partner across all campuses of the Pennsylvania Commission offers a consistent testing experience while also ensuring convenience and flexibility for students, especially during high-volume assessment periods. "Students appreciate ProctorU's ease of use, while the faculty knows they can rely on ProctorU to help uphold our high academic integrity standards," Plachuta stated.

College systems are also recognizing the benefits and value ProctorU provides as a virtual classroom space. To balance the expense of a physical on-campus test center with the investment needed in program growth and student retention, academic institutions are partnering with ProctorU as a reliable, trustworthy extension of their online learning space and a viable alternative to on-campus testing.
