Proctoring: why it is an efficient and scalable solution

We share some of the benefits of this tool for the assessments of the future.

Remote online supervision was already making its way into education, and COVID-19 accelerated its implementation. Whether in traditional (in-person), distance, virtual or blended education, we share why a proctoring solution is the best option for achieving efficiency with scalability when taking exams online, while maintaining the prestige of institutions.

Guarantees assessment security

First and foremost, it is essential to have proctoring software that guarantees exam security. That is, a tool that facilitates a secure environment and prevents plagiarism, copying and dishonest behaviour that could undermine the credibility and academic integrity of the institution.

Although different types of proctoring exist, it is ideal to have one that includes environment control (hardware, image and voice), identity validation and strict biometric analysis, to guarantee that the person being assessed is always the same throughout the exam.

Efficiency

An efficient proctoring system reduces supervision times and optimises the human resources dedicated to exam monitoring. The automation of processes such as identity verification and detection of suspicious behaviour frees up valuable time for academic teams.

Scalability

One of the greatest benefits of proctoring is its ability to scale. Regardless of the number of students or simultaneous exams, a robust proctoring solution can adapt to the institution's needs without compromising the quality of supervision.

Accessibility

Proctoring eliminates geographical barriers, allowing students from anywhere in the world to take their exams safely and reliably from wherever they are.

Reliability

An assessment process supervised by proctoring generates verifiable evidence of the student's performance, which strengthens the credibility of degrees and certifications issued by the institution.
