Can individuals over the age of five be present in the testing environment during a WGU Objective Assessment?

In the context of WGU's policies regarding the testing environment for Objective Assessments, only individuals under the age of five are permitted. This is to ensure a focused and distraction-free environment that allows students to perform optimally on their assessments. The rules are designed to maintain the integrity of the test-taking process, ensuring that all test-takers can concentrate fully.

Permitting anyone over the age of five could introduce potential distractions, which could compromise the testing experience for all participants. Therefore, the regulations explicitly outline the prohibition of individuals over five years in the testing space, emphasizing the importance of a controlled and quiet setting during assessments.
