INSPERA PROCTORING

Flexible, Scalable,
Live and Recorded Remote Proctoring

Choose the right environment for your exams, institution and candidates. Because not all exams are the same.

We offer a wide range of proctoring options that can be integrated into Inspera Assessment or your LMS, from recorded to live, so that you can choose the right options for each exam. You aren’t restricted to just one proctoring type with Inspera.

LIVE, RECORDED AND EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN

How Does Inspera Proctoring Work?

Inspera Proctoring is a remote proctoring solution that allows monitoring of candidates via your choice of their camera, microphone and screen recording. You can customize individual proctoring options by deciding what you record, conduct a room scan and whether to use a second camera.

There is also the choice of a locked browser, fully open or locked with permitted resources, and whether to live proctor or to record and review after the exam. AI then flags potential breaches so you can view as much of each recording as you feel necessary to be assured of academic integrity.

Our proctoring solutions are designed to work seamlessly with Inspera Assessment or your LMS. Your candidates will login to their exams in the usual way and be proctored in the background. When it comes to reviewing the recordings, your staff will benefit from a simple user interface that lets them concentrate on what’s been flagged rather than sifting through hours of footage.

Most importantly, the final decision about conduct is your institution’s. AI is your assistant, not the expert.

What Our Clients say

Inspera in Action

“Using Inspera Assessment hugely simplified our transition to digital assessments. The vast array of features accommodated diverse requirements, and the platform was simple to navigate and implement. Working with Inspera has been a pleasure!”

Dr Dee Scadden, Director of Teaching and Deputy Head of Department, Department of Biochemistry,
University of Cambridge

“Some students didn’t want to take the exam online simply because they were nervous. All of the students who did it online reported great satisfaction. All of the students who didn’t do it online, later said they wish they had done it. That is really interesting when you think about it.”

University of Bath

“The deans have been eager, as they can see the benefits. And once the users have transitioned to digital examination, they would not go back to the old system – there is no question of that. The use of digital examinations has risen steadily.”

University of Oslo

“The University of London has a diverse and globally distributed student population. Our choice of Inspera really reflects our need for an online assessment platform that is fit for the long term and gives us the flexibility to deliver a huge range of assessment types, securely, to any setting anywhere in the world. Our students have really appreciated that it is easy to use and supports the integrity of the award they have worked so hard to achieve.”

Michael Sawyer, Senior Project Manager, University of London

“At the University of Surrey, we want to provide our students with an exceptional student experience. Therefore, our move to Digital Assessment needed a service that provided feature rich software which fulfilled all our functional and non-functional requirements, but also one that would have an intuitive user interface. We also looked for a partner with a track record of working with institutions that have implemented Digital Assessment in the same way as we will. Inspera matched that profile”

Steve Hoole, Education Programme Manager, University of Surrey

Proctored exams are assessments that are supervised by a proctor, someone appointed by an institution to ensure the exam follows regulation. If delivered face to face, proctored exams are conducted in an invigilated exam hall, where the proctor makes sure proper conduct is maintained in-person. Online proctored exams are a digital version of an invigilated exam hall. During online proctored exams, students are monitored using a proctoring software, ensuring exam integrity is upheld.

Just like an in-person proctor, online proctoring software allows you to check whether exam regulations are followed by candidates. Candidate behavior can be monitored using a webcam, microphone and screen recording. The proctoring software flags suspected behavior for review by a human.

Online proctoring can be divided into two groups:

Record and review proctoring
Record and review proctoring is an efficient way for a proctor to review candidate behavior after an assessment. In automated proctoring, the proctoring software records the student via webcam, microphone, and screen capture and flags suspicious behavior in the recordings for review at a later date. The invigilator can then decide to review the whole recording or just the flagged parts and take further action if needed.

Live proctoring
With live proctoring, a proctor watches a candidate in real-time as they take their exam. The proctor sees multiple candidates at the same time via their webcam and can intervene if required. A recording of the session is also created so that it can be reviewed post-exam.
