Human Proctoring

What is Human Proctoring?

Human Proctoring involves live monitoring of candidates during an exam by human proctors to ensure exam integrity and prevent cheating. This method provides a high level of security and oversight, making it suitable for high-stakes examinations.

How Does Human Proctoring Work?

During human proctoring, a proctor supervises the exam either in person or remotely via video conferencing tools. The proctor monitors the candidate’s behavior, environment, and screen activity to detect any signs of cheating. Any suspicious activities are flagged for review, and the proctor can intervene if necessary.
