Laurel Amateur Radio Club VEC — Training Series
VEC-03: ExamTools Operations
The operational guide for Session Leaders and VEs running exam sessions using the ExamTools web-based testing platform.
Prerequisites
Complete VEC-01: Laurel VEC Policies & Procedures and VEC-02: Team Leader & Deputy Team Leader Training before starting this course.
Primary ExamTools reference: Because ExamTools is actively developed, the authoritative documentation is at docs.exam.tools/docs. This course covers Laurel VEC-specific application and procedures. The Hybrid Exam Workflow document is the companion reference for exporting results from ExamTools and processing them in Laurel session manager for portal upload — that process is covered separately in VEC-04. Teams must have RC approval to use ExamTools.
Downloadable reference: Workflow for Hybrid Exams using ExamTools (PDF) ↓ — the full process document created by PVET for running hybrid (paper and computer) exam sessions with ExamTools.
