What should I do before connecting to an Online Proctor?
  • Your webcam is installed and turned on.
  • With exception to the examination website, all other programs and applications are closed.
  • You have your government-issued photo identification ready to show the proctor. The identification must be valid (not expired) and include your signature. Examples include a driver’s license or a passport
  • You are only allowed to have one monitor connected to your computer during the assessment. If you use more than one monitor, disconnect it and make sure that it is facing away from you.
  • Your workstation is clear of any non-approved materials.
  • Test your internet connection at the testing station to ensure a speed of at least 10 Mbps or higher is available. Anything lower than 10 Mbps will not ensure optimal performance during the examination. You are recommended to find a better internet connection prior to the beginning of your examination. You can test your connection speed using one of the following 3 sites:
http://speedtest.googlefiber.net/
http://beta.speedtest.net/

What does the login and registration process look like?
Does my exam begin when I connect with ProctorU?
No, the allotted time for your exam does not begin until the exam has been unlocked by your proctor.
What time should I arrive for my exam?
Arrive at the time you selected when you scheduled the exam. If you arrive earlier, you may not be provided access to connect. If this is the case, clear your internet browser and reconnect at the scheduled start time.
Will the proctor be able to access my personal computer files and documents without my knowledge?

ProctorU proctors cannot secretly access your computer files. With your permission, proctors have the ability to view your screen and utilize the mouse and keyboard as if they were sitting next to you.

Once the exam starts, the proctor will monitor everything on the screen, but can no longer use your mouse and keyboard. During the entire process, a chat box is running, and you can see what permissions the proctor currently has at any time.

The entire chat is saved, including a record of what actions the proctor took while accessing your computer.

I am on the proctoring page, but I don’t see my proctor. What should I do?
  1. Make sure you’ve logged into the correct account, and clicked the “Write Exam” button
  2. Run or save the program – if you chose to save, locate the downloaded file ‘Support-LogMeInRescue’ and run it to connect to your proctor.
  3. If you continue to experience problems, Contact ProctorU directly.
I am logged in at my scheduled appointment time, but my exam is not allowing me to continue.
If you have logged in prior to the scheduled appointment time and are unable to continue, refresh your internet browser. If this is still not available, it is recommended you clear your internet history then log back in.
