          Also, you can create a testing location with proctors assigned.  Then assign the location to the testing session. The proctors assigned to the location automatically become the proctors of that testing session. For more information, please check this article.

          To demonstrate what live proctoring looks like from a proctor’s perspective, please watch this video.

        • Can candidates take a break during the exam?

          There are two ways  how you can allow the break to a candidate:

          1. You can enable the “Allow test continuation” option in the test creation process. Then, students will be able to take a break and resume when they want. For more detailed information on allowing test continuation, please check this article.
          2. The proctor may pause the testing session for one student or all students when necessary.
        • If multiple displays are connected, can I see all of them during a test monitoring?

          No, it is not possible to see content from multiple displays connected. However, the system will register if the candidate is not looking at the camera. Also, the proctoring can be configured to require an additional mobile camera to capture the user’s environment from another angle. That way, the proctor can see the environment around the student taking the test.

          For more information on proctoring, please check our website.

        • What test statuses YTM supports?

          The test statuses can be:

          • Waiting for report – Test that needs to be evaluated. If a test contains questions that should be manually graded, then the “Waiting for report” will be displayed. As soon as all questions are graded, the status will change to “Finished.” To see how to manually grade questions, please check this article.
          • In progress – The candidate is taking the test at the moment. If the option “Allow continuation” is not enabled. In that case, this status can be displayed if a candidate has started the test but not finished it properly (refreshed the page or closed the browser). Then you will have to allow him to continue manually.
          • Ready to modify – The candidate has finished the test, but you have allowed him/her to modify it. Then, the candidate will be able to re-enter the test and modify answers. For more information, please check this article.
          • Ready to continue – The candidate has pressed the continue button or refreshed the page (only when the “Allow continuation” option is enabled). In the end, he will be able to continue the test.
          • Not attempted – The candidate has not started the test yet.
          • Finished – The candidate has completed the test, all questions are graded (automatically or manually). Then, the candidate passed or failed the test.
          • Suspended – Status suspended is for all previous attempts.
        • Who can monitor tests during testing sessions?

          We have two options to monitor tests during testing sessions. We offer both Automated and Live proctoring solutions. Automated proctoring is an artificial intelligence option that uses behavioral trackers, while Live proctoring is supervised by a real person in addition to automated behavioral trackers. Exams are live supervised by either your proctors or by our certified proctors.
          Please watch these videos to see how looks live proctoring, and automated proctoring.

        Test Grading
        • Do you support real-time grading?

          Yes, YTM supports real-time grading. The students’ score updates with each submitted answer. The score displays to them during the test attempt. It is not the case when the test contains questions that need to be graded manually.
          To enable real-time grading, you need to set it in the Test Creation Wizard.
          For more related information about grading, please check this video.

        • Can a test be manually graded by multiple graders?

          A test can have multiple test managers, and all of them can manually grade the test.

        • Is there a way to manually grade the test?

          Yes, the test manager can manually grade any test he manages.
          For detailed instructions on how to manually grade the test, please watch this video.

There are ten different question types – multiple-choice, single choice, hotspot, fill in the blanks, essay, open-ended, true/false, branching, matching, matrix. Also, question types can be graded automatically, except essay questions. That type requires manual grading.
          For more information about question types, please check this video.

        Proctoring
        • Are videos available after the proctored test is finished?

          The video recordings of the proctored test with highlighted times of suspicious behavior and an automatically generated report are available after a test-attempt.

          You can watch this video to see how the process looks like.

        • What hours are available for taking the proctored test?

          It depends on whether it will be automated or live proctoring and whether you will be using your proctors or ours.

          In the case of automated proctoring – you can define the time for the exam by yourself.
          In the case of the live proctoring with your proctors – you can define the time for the exam by yourself.
          As for the live proctoring with YTM proctors – it can be defined with YouTestMe.

          To demonstrate what live proctoring looks like from a student’s perspective, please watch this video.

          For more information on proctoring, please check our website.

        • What if the student does not show up for a proctored exam?

          The proctoring minutes stay unused. However, if you use live proctoring with YTM proctors, proctors’ time will be charged.

          For more information on proctoring, please check our website.

          To demonstrate what live proctoring looks like from a student’s perspective, please watch this video.

           

        • What if the student encounters difficulties before the exam?

          Technical difficulties on the proctored exams are usually avoided through dummy exam sessions and timely equipment checks. If they do occur, a candidate can contact the YouTestMe support team for help.

          To demonstrate what live proctoring looks like from a student’s perspective, please watch this video.

          Also, you can check our website for more information on proctoring.

           

        • Is customer support available during the proctored exam?

          Our team will be providing technical support during the proctored exam based on the support package that was purchased. We provide support for your admins via email and phone, with the response time defined in your level of support.

          As for the support for the candidates, that option is included in the Premium Support. However, different options can be additionally included during the testing windows:

          Automated proctoring with premium support during selected days

          • Live proctoring with YTM proctors support
          • Live proctoring with YTM proctors with premium support during selected days
          • Or live proctoring with your proctors with premium support during selected days

          Note that the difference between Premium Support and employing YTM proctors for live monitoring is that proctors are able to intervene and assist candidates using a webcam and live chat during their test-taking process. On the other hand, Premium Support is available only through email or phone.

          For more information on proctoring, please check our website.

          To demonstrate what live proctoring looks like from a student’s perspective, please watch this video.

        • Should I schedule proctored tests or can they be on-demand?

          In the case of live proctoring, it is better for the test to be scheduled at a certain time for all candidates. This will give the proctor ability to monitor them in that defined time.

          Unlike live proctoring, the automated allows you to define a testing window availability. Each candidate will take an exam at the time that best suits him/her.

          To demonstrate what live proctoring looks like from a student’s perspective, please watch this video.

          Also, you can check our website for more information on proctoring.

          For more information on proctoring, please check our website.

          To demonstrate what live proctoring looks like from a student’s perspective, please watch this video.

        • Can we organize our proctors?

          Yes, you can organize the proctors yourself. A proctor will be able to supervise the exam in real-time, watching the test-taker’s surroundings and desktop to rule out cheating personally.

          To demonstrate what live proctoring looks like from a proctor’s perspective, please watch this video.

          Also, for more information on proctoring, please check our website.

        • Do you provide room scanning during the proctored exam?

          There is an option where candidates must use the QR code and connect the mobile phone before starting the test. They should then set the mobile phone behind them, enabling proctors to have a 360 view.

          To demonstrate what live proctoring looks like from a proctor’s perspective, please watch this video.

          Also, for more information on proctoring, please check our website.

        • What is the candidate/proctor ratio?

          Our recommendation is 8:1 if you use your proctors, 16:1 if you use YTM proctors, and the technical maximum for the proctored exam is 25:1.

          To demonstrate what live proctoring looks like from a proctor’s perspective, please watch this video.

          Also, for more information on proctoring, please check our website.

        • Do you have live ID authentication?

          In the case of live proctoring, proctors can verify the ID by contacting students during the exam and ask them to show their ID.

          To demonstrate what live proctoring looks like from a proctor’s perspective, please watch this video.

          Also, for more information on proctoring, please check our website.

        • Where are the settings for the automated proctoring feature?

          In the latest version of the application, it is impossible to adjust metrics (behaviors) in the application due to security. You can still choose a list of metrics you want to include, send us your list by email, and we will create a template on the proctoring server for you.
          The offered metrics are shown below:

          1.  Focus changed to a different window
          2. Full-screen mode is disabled
          3. Webcam is disabled
          4. Face invisible or not looking into the camera
          5. Several faces in front of the camera
          6. The face does not match the profile
          7. Found a similar profile
          8. Atypical keyboard handwriting
          9. Microphone muted or its volume is low
          10. Conversation or noise in the background
          11. No network connection
          12. No connection to a mobile camera
          13. Screen activities are not shared

          Once we finish the template, we will send you detailed instructions on how to set up Proctoring service in the application’s system setting.

          Also, for more information on proctoring, please check our website.

        • What does the“Require positive proctoring report” option do?

          If the “Require positive proctoring report” option is checked, a positive proctoring mark will be required for students to pass the test. Otherwise, the proctoring report will not affect the final score on the test.
          If selected, it doesn’t mean that an administrator must review each test recording.

          The score displaying is determined based on the enabled option during the test preparation.

          There are three options available for displaying the report:

          •  “Real-time grading” – during the test-taking process, users will see the changes in their test score after submitting each answer.
          • “On manager’s approval” – users will see the report after the test manager approves it.
          • “Immediately after finishing” – users will see the report immediately after completing the test.

          For more information about the “Require positive proctoring report” option, you can read in this article – How to connect the proctoring results with the outcome of the test.

          Also, for more information on proctoring, please check our website.

        • Do you have live remote proctoring?

          Yes, in addition to the system’s artificial intelligence behavior trackers, the exam can be proctored live by the proctors. This ensures the maximum integrity and security of your online examination.

        • Where is data warehoused?

          The data collected during the proctored exam is warehoused on YouTestMe servers in Canada.

          For more information on proctoring, please check our website.

          In order to see how to create a proctored test and assign proctors, please watch this video.

           

        • Do you have automated ID authentication?

          Yes. Once the system finishes the automated equipment check, students must take a photo of themself and their ID. After the exam, the photos are stored on the profile of the candidate and can be verified.

          For more information on proctoring, please check our website.

          In order to see how to create a proctored test and assign proctors, please watch this video.

        • Can a proctored test be stopped/suspended automatically for any reason?

          No. The automated proctoring solution allows you to monitor both the candidate’s screen and face. The browser is not locked by using the proctoring solution, and it will not stop/suspend the exam if they exit the full screen. It will just mark that as suspicious behavior and notify the candidates that they need to access the full screen again. The entire process is recorded, allowing you to review the recording later and determine if the candidates have tried to cheat.

          To demonstrate what live proctoring looks like from a proctor’s perspective, please watch this video.

          Also, for more information on proctoring, please check our website.

        • How “Verification of the person” works?

          The candidate must capture the photo of the face and ID before starting the test. During the test, the system checks in real-time if the face in the front camera matches the face captured before starting the test. The proctor can verify the candidate’s identity and check the system’s conclusions at the proctoring report at any time.

          To demonstrate what live proctoring looks like from a proctor’s perspective, please watch this video.

          Also, for more information on proctoring, please check our website.

        • What does “Post conclusion automatically” imply?

          Implies that the system will automatically grade the proctoring session (candidate’s behavior) based on the specified session metrics and defined thresholds. The system automatically monitors the test attempt using various behavioral trackers and records the entire process, marking the moments of suspicious behaviors. Once the exam is finished, the system generates a credibility report and stores the exam footage for the optional subsequent human validation and review.
          This article explains the Algorithm for calculating the Proctoring Credibility Score. The grade can be changed after the exam being reviewed. The option must be configured in the proctoring session template inside the proctoring system by YouTestMe.

          To demonstrate what live proctoring looks like from a proctor’s perspective, please watch this video.

          Also, for more information on proctoring, please check our website.

        • What the “Found similar profile” warning means during the test-taking process?

          “Found similar profile” warning means that the same or similar person took the test with proctoring from different YouTestMe profiles.
          The system compares the photos taken at the beginning of the attempt of the proctored test that the candidate started. Ideally, there will be only one profile for a single person in the application.

          To demonstrate what live proctoring looks like from a proctor’s perspective, please watch this video.

          Also, for more information on proctoring, please check our website.

        • Is it possible to review suspicious behavior by the candidate?

          Once you access the recording of the candidate, you will be able to see the report and all suspicious behavior by a candidate.
          1. Navigate to the Monitoring tab.
          2. Click the “View the proctor report” icon in the Actions tab for the candidate.
          3. When the window opens, in the right corner, you can see the chart bar with errors and all suspicious behavior during the test by the candidate.
          4. At the bottom of the protocol, the session timeline is displayed, consisting of a timeline, the current playback position (vertical moving line), and horizontal sections.
          The color (from green to red) highlights the minutes for which metrics in the proctoring system are collected.
          Moving along the timeline, you can find violations you are interested in and play videos of these areas.
          So you don’t have to watch the whole video – you can just review the moments of suspicious behavior.

          To demonstrate what live proctoring looks like from a proctor’s perspective, please watch this video.

          Also, for more information on proctoring, please check our website.

        • Is there detection software to assist the proctor?

          Yes, the AI helps the proctors monitor the students by marking the next behaviors flags:

          • The absence of a human face in front of the camera
          • Multiple or unauthorized faces in front of the camera
          • Opening of any additional page in the browser
          • Exiting the full-screen mode
          • Background noise or conversation
          • Changing the focus to a different window
          • Having an additional display
          • A muted microphone
          • Unrecognized typing patterns

          Also, for more information on proctoring, please check our website.

        • Is it possible to hide some notifications during an automated proctoring exam?

          Yes, it is possible to disable the desired notifications (i.e., “Conversation or noise in the background”).

          Kindly note that if some of them are disabled, the system will not count that as bad behavior, and they will not be marked in the candidate’s recording or report.

          For more information on proctoring, please check our website page.

          To demonstrate what automated proctoring looks like from a candidate’s perspective, please watch this video. 

        • Is the QR code for an additional camera the same for everyone, or is it unique?

          Yes, the QR code is unique and can’t be sent to others. Every candidate needs to log in to the test using his QR code.

          For more information on proctoring options, please check our website page.

           

        • Is it possible to return to the test, which requires a QR code scanning, if the test allows continuation?

          Yes, it is possible to continue the test. As long as a candidate does not close the mobile browser, instead just minimizes it during the break, he will be able to open it again, and the camera will be automatically connected.

          For more information on proctoring options, please check our website page.

           

        My Assignments
        Test-Taking
        • Can students enroll themselves in an assignment?

          Yes, students can enroll themselves. You can enable the self-enrollment option for tests, surveys, and training courses. That makes them available to a group of users or all users in the system.
          For more information, please check this video.

        • What when is lost connection during the test-taking process?

          In case of a lost connection, the system stores all data – all submitted answers. The user has to contact the test manager who will then allow him/her to continue the test.
          For more related information, check this article.

        • Can calculator and notes be used on test-taking?

          Test-takers can use a calculator and notes during the exam. Test-takers can take notes within the specific application section designed for these purposes, and this option can be disabled.
          For more information, please check this video.

        • I can not get my identification document to scan in the system

          When uploading a document, the document needs to be visible, and therefore it is best to capture only the
          the document, in close, without any background.

          Good example:

          Bad example:

        • Proctoring does not start on iOS Safari

          For proctoring to work correctly, you must disable the option “Settings -> Safari -> Privacy & Security ->Prevent Cross-Site Tracking.”

        • The MediaRecorder error on iOS Safari

          For the system to work correctly in iOS Safari, the MediaRecorder option must be enabled in the Settings → Safari → Advanced → Experimental Features → MediaRecorder.

        • Scrolling does not work on iOS Safari

          In iOS Safari, scrolling inside IFRAME elements may not work when “Async Frame Scrolling” is enabled in Safari. You should disable this option “Settings -> Safari -> Advanced -> Experimental Features -> Async Frame Scrolling”.

        • What happens if the phone rings during the test?

          It depends on the phone and its settings.  On some phones, everything stays as it is even though the candidate answers the phone call.  On some phones, the mobile camera is stopped, but the camera reappears as soon as the call is finished.

          To prevent even a short break, we would recommend that candidates:

          1. Turn on “Airplane mode” on their phone, and after that
          2. Turn on the WIFI that is needed for a test connection.
        • What happens if the phone runs out of battery during the test?

          If the phone shuts down, the mobile phone camera will be disconnected, but the web camera will remain connected. The most important thing is that the mobile camera is turned on at the beginning of the test to record the candidate’s environment and determine that he does not use another monitor or additional reference documentation.

          If the mobile phone runs out of battery, the proctors will continue to monitor them via webcam and see all irregularities. However, we would recommend keeping the Phone on the charger during the exam to avoid this situation.

        • Is there an alternative to using the camera on the phone as an additional monitoring option?

          Candidates can use a mobile phone or tablet as an additional webcam.

        • How can test-takers prepare themselves for a proctored test?

          Here is the “Test-taking guide” template, as well as the video tutorial of the test-taking process proctoring option enabled.
          • Test-taking Guide
          • Test-taking with Live Proctoring.

          The Test-taking guide may be customized according to your needs, and we can add the reference documents along with more specific rules or guidelines that students need to acknowledge.

          Also, this is the document with best practices for organizing the proctored test – Best Practices for Proctored test.

          For more information on proctoring, please check our website.

        • What happens if the student is late?

          In the case of an automated proctored exam, the candidate can take it at any time that suits him the best within the testing window’s availability.

          As for the live proctoring, depending on your instructions, the student can be:

          • Allowed more time if that is agreed and proctors are available.
          • Notified about the remaining time.

          Also, you can check our website for more information on proctoring.

        • Which mobile browsers are supported when connecting an additional camera during the proctored test?
          You may use the following browsers to scan the QR code and connect an additional mobile camera to a proctored test:
          • • Google Chrome
          • • Firefox
          • • Safari
          • • Brave
          The mobile browser which is not supported:
          • • mi browser
           In case you use Xiaomi mobile phone (mi browser), you can scan the QR code in the following ways:
          • • Open Google Chrome browser on your phone and scan the code using an online scanner.
          • • Download the scanner on your phone and use Google Chrome as a default browser.
          • • Use Google Lens.
        • Is there a systems test before taking the proctored exam?

          Before organizing the official testing, we recommend creating a dummy test with some random questions carrying 0 points. The dummy test’s purpose is to help your candidates to get familiar with the application and test their equipment (camera, microphone, etc.).

          The dummy test should be mandatory since candidates need to make sure to have the necessary equipment for the proctored test.

          Also, we are offering to send you the questions for the dummy test and help you organize everything.

          In order to help candidates to prepare for the process in the best way, you should:

          Once the candidates finish the dummy test, you should organize the official one.

        • How does the student receive their exam results?

          There are two types of results for the proctored exam. One is the score obtained by achieving enough points on the exam which can be configured in three ways:

          1. “Real-time grading” – during the test-taking process, users will see the changes in their test score after submitting each answer.
          2. “On manager’s approval” – users will see the report after the test manager approves it.
          3. “Immediately after finishing” – users will see the report immediately after completing the test.

          The proctoring result:

          There is an option to enable “Require positive proctoring feedback” meaning that the positive proctoring mark will be required for students to pass the test. Otherwise, the proctoring report will not affect the final score on the test.

        • What kind of reports can GetCertified generate?

          All of the events and activities that occur in the system are stored in the database. We use that data to generate reports. Every module has several reports associated with it (reports related to the test attempts, questions, answers, tests as a whole, and many more). Any report you need can be extracted from the database if it’s not already in the system.

          We provide extensive reporting capabilities on all levels of the application. With our report, you can examine:

          1. The validity of test attempts (automated proctoring)
          2. The individual and collective results of your students
          3. Question statistics
          4. Standard and advanced test statistics
          5. Many more reports not directly related to the testing module
