Welcome to Algonquin College’s Centre for Accessible Learning (CAL) Test Services!

At CAL Test Services, we provide services and support for:

  • Students who request test accommodations and
  • Faculty who are unable to provide test accommodations in the classroom

And by “test,” we mean any supervised test, quiz, or exam to be taken in person at CAL Test Services. Here, we’ll provide a clear overview of the full test-booking process and explain the steps so that you’ll see:

  • What students need to do
  • What faculty need to do
  • What CAL Test Services needs to do

Students, for a simple step-by-step guide and answers to your frequently asked questions, visit the Student Information tab on the main menu.

Faculty, for a simple step-by-step guide and answers to your frequently asked questions, visit the Faculty Information tab on the main menu.

Booking deadlines for students:

  • Tests/Quizzes – must be booked at least seven (7) days in advance.
    • Count backwards 7 days from the day of the test. When counting, include the weekend, the day on which you’re booking the test, and the day of the test. For example, if you want to take a test on Friday, you would have to book it on the previous Friday before midnight.
  • *NEW* Midterms – all midterms/tests being written February 18 – 21 must be booked by Monday, February 3.
  • Final Exams – all exams/tests being written April 12-21 must be booked by Wednesday, March 19.

If you have missed the deadline and feel there are special circumstances that apply to your situation, please contact your disabilities counsellor through the Welcome Centre. Email welcomecentre@algonquincollege.com or call 613-727-4723 ext. 7200.
