Brad Hornung Accommodations Test Centre
Welcome to the Brad Hornung Accommodations Test Centre (BHATC) at the heart of the University of Regina's main campus.

At BHATC, we take pride in being an integral part of the University of Regina's commitment to accessibility and diversity. We invite you to explore the resources and support we offer, and we are here to assist you every step of the way.

Frequently Asked Questions
Students registered with Student Accessibility requiring exam accommodations, taking on-campus, for credit courses, are the primary users of the BHATC.
The exam scheduling process is student-initiated. Students submit their exam booking request through the scheduling software (Accommodate) for the exam date and time as outlined on the course syllabus. Unless discussed with the instructor, students must select the day and time that corresponds with the original class time. If your class time is outside of regular Test Centre operating hours, students must choose to write earlier in the day or the next day. Bookings must be made at least 7 days in advance.
Instructors receive an email notification when a student has submitted an exam booking request. Instructors can approve or decline the requests, make edits to booking requests and upload the exam through the secure scheduling software. Instructors, or a designated proxy, must pick up completed paper exams from the BHATC. ID is required for pick up.
Accommodate software is quite user-friendly. Training content is available on the website as well as in Accommodate under the "Resources" tab. If anyone needs further support, they can contact the BHATC directly.
Quizzes, midterms, final exams and deferred exams for on campus, for credit classes that do not require specialized lab space or software can be written in the BHATC. Students must also be registered with Student Accessibility for exam accommodations. Students taking online courses that have on campus final exams are also able to write those exams in the BHATC.
Currently, the Brad Hornung ATC does not support the following exam accommodations:
- Non-credit course exams
- Exams for online courses, unless the exam is scheduled to be written on campus
- Exams that require software not offered by the Brad Hornung ATC (i.e. language exams)
- Students who are not registered with Student Accessibility
Student Accessibility staff will continue with the in-take process of registering new students for exam accommodations. Please refer to the Student Accessibility webpage for contact information.
If your lab exam requires use of lab space and specialized lab equipment, the BHATC cannot be used to write your lab exam. If your lab exam is a paper exam, you can use the BHATC. Seek clarification from your instructor to be sure.
At this time the BHATC is available for accommodated students registered with Student Accessibility and those students writing Proctortrack exams that do not have access to proper equipment or space to write their exams.
The BHATC is available for deferred exams of accommodated students registered with Student Accessibility.
