Supervision

The overall test center supervisor should be a mature and reliable person with unquestionable integrity and the ability to handle detail, security, and a large group of people. This person should be a member of the faculty or administrative staff and have some experience in administering standardized tests. LSAC will provide all of the equipment necessary to administer the Digital LSAT, including the tablets the LSAT takers will test on.

The test center supervisor will be responsible for the overall supervision of the test administration and will recruit others to assist in the Digital LSAT administration, either as room supervisors or test proctors.

All test center supervisors and their staff will be required to complete a series of online training modules that outline the expectations and overall responsibilities of test day roles.

Please note: Testing personnel should not have taken the LSAT within 24 months of working on an LSAT administration.
