Online proctoring

Online proctoring software for exams that count

Verify who is sitting the exam, keep the conditions fair, and leave an evidence trail you can defend. Proctoring is built into the same platform where you author and deliver the exam, so there is no second vendor to bolt on.

Online proctoring software supervises a remote exam the way an invigilator supervises a room. It confirms the candidate is who they claim to be, constrains what they can do during the sitting, and records the session so any result can be reviewed later. The goal is a remote result you can trust and, if it is ever questioned, prove.

CandidatesPrep gives you both live and AI proctoring, so you can match the level of supervision to what is actually at stake: full live invigilation for a high-value licence, or automated monitoring with human review of the flags for a large-volume knowledge check.

What is included

Identity verification

Photo ID capture and face match before the exam starts, so the right person is in the seat.

Screen lock and lockdown

Keep candidates inside the exam, with no wandering off to other applications or the open web.

Behaviour detection

Tab-switch, copy-paste, and second-screen signals are caught and flagged for review.

Live or AI proctoring

A human invigilator in real time, or automated monitoring with flagged moments queued for a person.

Full session recording

Every sitting is recorded, so a questioned result already has its evidence on file.

No install required

Exams run in a standard web browser. There is no lockdown client to distribute and support.

A flag is not a verdict

The real value of proctoring is not catching someone in the moment. It is that every flag is evidence attached to a timestamp. Nothing is silently trusted and nothing is silently rejected: a human reviews the flags and decides.

That is what makes a remote result defensible. When a candidate or a board challenges an outcome, the recording and the flag log are already on file, so the challenge becomes a review of the record rather than one person's word against another's.

Common questions

How does online proctoring work?

It verifies the candidate's identity, locks down the exam environment, and records the session while monitoring for unusual behaviour. Anything unusual is flagged for a human to review afterwards.

Do candidates need to install anything?

No. Exams run in a standard web browser on the candidate's own device, with no desktop client or separate lockdown browser to install.

Can I choose between live and AI proctoring?

Yes. You can run live human invigilation, AI monitoring with human review of the flags, or match the level to each exam's stakes.
