In the past few years, remote proctoring has gone from a somewhat curious anomaly to a viable solution for institutions looking to provide a secure exam environment online. Recently we have undergone a comprehensive review of our strategy to provide secure examinations for faculty and students who teach and learn online. Included in this assessment was a comprehensive review of major online proctoring solutions as well as a review of our current policy to send students to local face-to-face proctoring providers at physical locations all over the world. This presentation will present our findings from this process including key features of different online proctoring platforms, important differences between online proctoring vendors and their products, considerations when choosing an online proctoring solution, and the value of online proctoring solutions versus in-person proctoring. Attendees of this presentation will leave with a better understanding of available online proctoring solutions, the pros and cons of each, and what is important when choosing a proctoring solution for their institution.
