Your role as a AP Coordinator
The AP Coordinator is responsible for all aspects regarding the ordering of the AP exam (often the testing coordinator). This is an official College Board position and designated role within Galaxy.
Why is it important?
As described by College Board, “The success of a school’s AP program is due in large part to the efforts of a dedicated AP coordinator. AP coordinators assume primary responsibility for organizing and administering the AP programs at their schools. They also manage the ordering, receipt, distribution, administration, and return of AP Exam materials — making sure millions of students worldwide receive their AP scores.”
