Proctors and Assistant Proctors are required to hold a valid Colorado certification at or above the level of practical examination they are proctoring.

Proctors must return testing materials to the Division of Fire Prevention & Control within 24 hours of the examination date, unless other arrangements have been approved by the Division of Fire Prevention & Control.

PROCTORS MAY NOT REPRODUCE, DUPLICATE, OR COPY TESTING MATERIALS. Any certification issued by the Division, including Proctor certification, may be denied, suspended, summarily suspended, revoked, or limited, for good cause in accordance with the Administrative Procedures Act, C.R.S. 24-4-101 et seq., as amended.
