What is online exam proctoring?

Online exam proctoring is the process of monitoring test-takers remotely to verify their identity, secure the testing environment, and protect the integrity of your results. Instead of sending candidates to a physical test center, remote proctoring services can use webcam feeds, AI-assisted monitoring, and browser lockdown technology to create a secure exam environment wherever the candidate sits.

For organizations running certification programs, compliance assessments, or professional exams at scale, this level of flexibility allows for secure exam delivery across time zones without the cost and friction of test center logistics, while keeping your results defensible and your content protected. Questionmark provides multiple approaches to online exam proctoring via a single platform, so you can match the level of supervision to each program without switching tools.

Proctoring methods available

Questionmark offers multiple remote proctoring services so you can choose the right balance of security, scale, and flexibility for each assessment you run.

Live online proctoring

Keeping your certification and high stakes exams secure in a digital-first world is critical. That’s why we offer live online proctoring, integrated into our assessment experience.

We provide a remote proctor who supervises a test-taker using the webcam and audio built into the test-taker’s computer. The proctor confirms the test-taker’s identity and can pause or terminate the assessment if they see suspicious behavior.

Record and review

For a solution that allows for monitoring and post-exam intervention, Record & Review proctoring provides a scalable, on-demand experience to suit your round-the-clock, round-the-globe needs.

We provide an automated system that records the exam session on video, so you can review it later. Activity in need of review (such as a second person on screen) is flagged automatically, and you’ll be prompted to review the footage.

Secure browser

To keep your content safe, reduce cheating and ensure the validity of your assessment program you need a holistic approach to test security. Alongside the proctoring option of your choice, our multi-platform secure browser ensures test-center level security wherever your candidate may be.

Onsite proctoring

For those who need to accommodate face-to-face assessments, we enable customers to proctor individual test-takers or a group of test-takers in-person and onsite.

Accessibility and global reach

Questionmark supports exam delivery in over 30 languages with built-in translation management, so candidates non-native speakers of an exam can sit assessments in their own language without any drop in security or experience.

For organizations operating across borders or time zones, that means you can run a single, consistent proctoring program globally without needing to manage separate regional setups. Record and review proctoring is particularly well suited to this, with on-demand scheduling that lets candidates book in their own time zone and sit the exam when it suits them.

Fairness doesn’t stop at language, either. Questionmark’s text-to-speech feature lets candidates hear questions read aloud at the click of a button, helping those with reading difficulties, low confidence in written exams, or exam anxiety show what they actually know rather than how well they read.

Questionmark offers multiple proctoring options, including live online proctoring, record and review proctoring, and onsite proctoring. All three are delivered in conjunction with our online assessment solution for a seamless experience.

 

The Questionmark assessment platform is FedRAMP Authorized and meets the security standards required for US Government use. It is also ISO 27001 certified and GDPR compliant.

Questionmark includes a range of features designed to keep assessments fair for every candidate. Text-to-speech lets candidates hear questions read aloud, supporting those with reading difficulties or exam anxiety. Exam delivery in over 30 languages means non-native speakers can sit assessments in their own language. Both features are built into the platform and available across proctored exams.

Questionmark’s platform is purpose-built for high-stakes exams including certification programs, providing identity verification, secure browser lockdown, and full audit trails for every proctored certification exam your program delivers.

Proctoring services focus on monitoring the candidate, either through a live proctor or an automated recording. A secure browser focuses on locking down the device, restricting what the candidate can access during the exam. Questionmark gives you both in one platform, so you get layered protection without managing two separate tools.

Questionmark is built for enterprise scale and is trusted by more than 750 organizations worldwide to deliver high-volume exams. For details on how we could support your program, why not talk to us.
