Remote Proctored Assessments

You will receive an email instructing you how to select an assessment time in the DECIS. You will receive a Microsoft Teams link from a remote proctor before your assessment.

Please read all information carefully and be fully prepared on the day of your assessment.

• You will not be permitted to test (and will forfeit your exam fee) if you do not have:
  • Valid photo identification
  • A working webcam to show yourself and pan around the room
  • A clean desk area free of papers, books, phones, and other materials
  • Enough battery power to last two hours
  • See other details outlined in the scheduling invitation
• You must confirm the compatibility of your equipment and systems prior to testing and be familiar with Microsoft Teams.
• You must login 10 minutes prior to the start of your exam to ensure you can connect to audio and video. The proctor will join you at the scheduled time. If you arrive more than five minutes late to the exam session, you will not be permitted to test. Your exam will be canceled and you will forfeit your exam fee.
• Dual monitors are prohibited.
• You will be allowed access to NotePad during the test and will be instructed to delete any notes taken prior to ending your test session. If unfamiliar with NotePad, try it on your own prior to the session.
• You must “share” your desktop for the duration of the exam so the proctor can verify you have no other applications or internet sites open on your computer.
• You must keep your audio and video on, and you will be recorded.
• You are not permitted to leave the camera viewing area until your exam session is completed.
• No one else may be in the room with you while you are taking the exam.
