What to Expect on Exam Day
On the day of your online exam, there are some important things to keep in mind:
- You must present a current, valid government-issued photo ID for admission to the online exam session. Acceptable IDs include a state driver’s license or identification card, passport, civil service ID, or military identification card.
- You should take the test in a quiet, distraction-free area, and no other individuals are allowed in the testing room with you during the online exam.
- Ensure that you have a reliable computer with a high-speed internet connection, a microphone, a webcam (internal or external), and either a Windows or Apple Operating System. It’s recommended to review system requirements and test your equipment in advance to avoid technical issues.
- You are not allowed to access notes or personal items during the exam. Verification will be conducted via webcam to ensure your testing space is free of prohibited items.
- An erasable hand-held whiteboard and erasable marker can be used as scratch paper during the exam. After completing your exam, the proctor will verify that you have fully erased the whiteboard. No other scratch paper is allowed.
