Instructions proctoring
Hoe does digital supervision of your test, often called proctoring, work? This video shows you more information about making a test under digital supervision. There is also a brochure for candidates available with more information. You can find this brochure at the bottom of this page.
Preperation - What do you need:
| Laptop or Desktop | To make the test under digital supervision you need a Chrome plugin which only works with a laptop or desktop (so not with a tablet or a telephone) | ||||
| Google Chrome |
Noone wants to have to install unnecessary software on their computer, that's why the proctoring platform is as light as possible. The only requirement is that you have the free browser Google Chrome installed, with the proctoring screen sharing plugin. You need to use the most recent version of Chrome, so make sure your Chrome is updated. |
||||
| ID with photo | We need to be able to identify you before you can start on the test. You can use a passport, ID card, driving license or student card. As long as your name and photo is clearly visible. Make sure that unnecessary personal information, such as a social security number is hidden. | ||||
| Smartphone | You need to download our app to your phone (ProctorExam - 34 MB). The app is compatible with:
|
||||
| Stable internet connection | A stable internet connection is required (wifi is needed to stream from your phone) with a minimal upload speed of 1Mb/second. | ||||
| Disable adblockers | If candidates use adblockers in their Google Chrome browser then they need to disable these whilst using the proctoring software. |
Before the start - Before you start with the test make sure that:
| The room is well lit | You need to be clearly visible | |||
| You are alone | You need to be the only person making the test. If someone else is in the room then that is considered as a serious offence. | |||
| Your cameras are successfully set up | Both your webcam and telephone camera need to show you and your room clearly. |
Test taking - During the test:
| No other devices | You are not allowed to use any other devices, such as a second screen or tablet. There is one exception: - If a smartphone is required for the camera, then this is of course allowed.
|
|||
| No headphones | We need to be able to hear what you hear in order to clarify your test as a valid test. | |||
| Don't talk |
Every sound will be analysed to rule out potentially suspicious behavior, so make sure you are in a quiet room and that you are not talking. |
|||
| Don't go to the toilet |
During the test you have to stay visible in the cameras, so you cannot go to the toilet during the test. Make sure you go to the toilet before you start the test! |
