Private Testing
The TRU Assessment Centre provides private testing services for individuals wanting to write exams from institutes or agencies other than TRU.
Fees
Supervision fees: The test supervision fee is $45 + GST per three-hour sitting, with additional fees for longer sessions. Please note this fee is non-refundable.
Postage fees: There is no charge if the testing material is sent via regular mail or if a pre-paid waybill is provided by the institute/agency. There is a $15 postage fee if the individual wants the material returned by courier anywhere in Canada. The fee will vary for locations outside Canada.

Scent-Free Notice: The Assessment Centre is a scent-free work environment. Since many people are extremely sensitive to perfumes, colognes, aftershaves and other scented products, we request that no one wears them at any time in the Centre. If a candidate does not comply with this policy, they will not be tested and they will be responsible for rescheduling their exam. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, but we need to ensure the safety of all using this space. -
Once the testing session is completed, the Assessment Centre will return the testing material via regular mail unless other provisions are made by the institute/agency or yourself.
