What is Proctortrack? 

Proctortrack is the automatic remote proctoring solution your institution has selected for use during online exams. More
information about Proctortrack’s privacy policies and technologies used can be found on our website.

 
How does it work? 

The following guide will assist you, the student, in going through the process of taking a proctored exam with Proctortrack.
Remember if you ever had any additional questions, you can call 1 (844) 753-2020 or go to ​www.proctortrack.com for additional
information and live chat.

 
Why Onboarding? 

Attempting the Onboarding creates the profile of the students in the Proctortrack System. Often students are unsure whether
their specific hardware setup will allow them to use Proctortrack. While a detailed list of supported operating systems and
browsers is available on Proctortrack.com, students often prefer to test their system themselves. Keep in mind that Chrome and
Firefox are the recommended browsers. While Proctortrack will work in other browsers, the user experience is far superior in
Chrome. The onboarding process gives students the opportunity to make sure everything is working correctly during
low-pressure circumstances. It also gives students time to make any changes to their system well before the first exam.

Students can fail onboarding for the following reasons:
● Missing or insufficient facial scan.
● Missing or insufficient ID scan.
● ID scan shows invalid ID.
● Missing or insufficient knuckle scan.
● Insufficient environment lighting.

If a student fails the onboarding exam, they will receive a notification listing the specific reasons for failure and be asked to
retake the onboarding exam.

For students, onboarding appears exactly the same as a normal exam to help familiarize them to the testing environment.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Verificient support:
