Exam Supervisor Information
For Semester 1, 2024 our largest general exam venue will be seating up to 130 students & we will be continuing with Live Invigilation "webcam bypass" sessions in PC Labs for Respondus eExams.
There will still be a few private and 12 seater venues accommodating students with disability support adjustments.
If you are to be rostered to one of these sessions that requires scribing or question reading, we will double check with you that you are comfortable with these roles.
