Although you will be testing from a remote location, you will still be connected with a live, human proctor. Testing in the remote proctoring environment means that you will be able to contact someone in a timely manner and receive immediate support to minimize disruptions to exam completion. The following provides more information regarding what you can expect from your remote proctoring experience.

Before the proctor can allow you to access your exam, you must:
- Provide access to your device’s camera and microphone.
- Share your screen.
- Share your photo ID on camera. The proctor will use your ID in conjunction with biometric facial- recognition software to authenticate your identity.
The proctor must perform systems checks to ensure your computer is working optimally for the exam platform and may ask to take control of your computer. You will be able to observe all actions the proctor takes, which may include changing some of your computer settings and closing software and applications that are not permissible during your exam.
The proctor will verify that:
- Your workspace and environment meet the requirements,
- Your computer and technology meet the requirements,
- You have an ID that meets the requirements, and
- You are taking the exam from an eligible country.
If you do not meet any of the requirements above, you will not be permitted to take the exam and will not be eligible for a refund.
During the Exam:
As you take your exam, the proctor will continue to monitor your screen, camera, and microphone. The purpose of this live monitoring is to assist should you experience a technical problem during your exam, and to ensure you are following the terms stated in the Examinee Agreement. If the proctor determines you are not adhering to these requirements, they may end your exam session. If this occurs, you will not be eligible for a refund.
