CLEP online

[cookderosa]

I would love for it to happen but academia rarely chooses to be convenient (which is why there are only 3 in the Big 3) when it can make money instead (sitting fees).

CLEP doesn't make money on the testing fees, the testing center does.  So if they did online proctoring, it would just change who got that money (one of the proctoring companies vs. a testing center at a college).

colleges lose money when we use CLEP instead of paying tuition, and they would lose money if they didn't administer exams- they need incentive. I don't really know what the sales pitch College Board uses is, I mean it's not really a win for the college unless someone getting to use 4 CLEP exams is a reason to enroll, and it may be... but Dfrecore is right, if they pulled the little revenue from administering away from the colleges, then what? Of the ACE evaluated products, College board is heads above everyone else in terms of numbers and credit acceptance.
