Remote proctoring

TAO can be integrated with Proctorio, a remote proctoring solution that records and monitors test sessions to support secure online assessments.

Proctorio uses a test taker’s webcam, microphone, screen activity, and browser monitoring tools to help identify potential testing irregularities. After a session is completed, authorized users can review the recordings and flagged events for each test taker.

Important: Initial Proctorio enablement and configuration must be completed by OAT.

Proctorio integration in TAO

Once Proctorio has been enabled for your organization:

• Individual sessions can be configured for remote proctoring. For more information, see External proctoring options in Creating a session.

• For sessions with Proctorio enabled, users with the Proctor or Group Manager role will have access to launch the Proctorio Review Center directly from the session. From there, they can review recordings and flagged events:

Test taker experience

For test takers, the experience includes an initial diagnostic check before entering the session. This process verifies:

• Internet/connectivity status

• Webcam functionality

• Microphone functionality

Additional information

• Scoring remains fully within TAO.

• Standard live monitoring capabilities in the TAO UI are available

• Proctorio serves as an additional layer of remote monitoring and post-session review. For more information on how to navigate Proctorio (as a proctor or test taker), see the Proctorio documentation.
