Testing Services

Need to take an online or written exam for school? Growing your professional skillset with a new certification? All Scott County Libraries can administer certain types of exams for students enrolled in an educational institution at no cost, with some exceptions. 

Before you submit an Exam Form, be sure to open and read the tabs below to see what we can (and cannot) administer, along with testing environment guidelines. 

If we're unable to support your exam, a helpful list of alternative options is also available below. 

  1. Know Before You Schedule

Before scheduling, make sure we meet your institution's requirements. Review our guidelines below for details about technology needs, supervision, etc. If what we offer isn't adequate, check the list of alternative testing services below to find recommendations. 

We reserve the right to limit this service. 

How to schedule an exam

  1. Make sure to read the tabs below to ensure we meet the requirements for your exam. Please note that we cannot support certain tests due to Minnesota state regulations. 
  2. Use our Request form (embedded in final tab) to make an initial request to your library. Exams must be scheduled at least two business days in advance. We recommend scheduling well in advance to ensure the date or time you want is available, especially if you need to reserve a private room.
  3. Once we review your form, library staff at the location you select will reach out to schedule your exam time.

Tests we cannot proctor

Due to Minnesota state regulations, we can't administer professional license exams for the industries listed below. Use these links to find approved testing centers from the MN Department of Commerce.
