Preparations for a remote proctored digital exam
It is important to prepare yourself in advance for your remote proctored exam. You must perform a room scan every time you take a remote proctored exam. The room scan provides the WUR with proof that you are in compliance with the examination rules.
Preparations before the exam
- Check your room and desk (see the rules on what is allowed)
- Check your equipment:
- a computer with Windows 10 or 11, or Mac OS 10.15 or newer
- a working webcam and a working microphone
- a working browser; only Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox can be used.
- a mobile phone for second camera view
- a stable internet connection
- an active WUR-account (make sure you remember your password)
- Do the try-out exam!
When you have questions on this please check the information in the FAQ pages.
You may test your equipment by doing the try-out exam to check if you are prepared.
It is not possible to take a remote proctored exam on a tablet, hybrid or mobile device. External camera's on a Mac are not supported. When you have a second screen it should be disconnected and covered (with a sheet or towel) or removed from your desk.
