Proctorio at Utah Valley University

Proctorio is now available to all faculty to provide remote proctored online assessments for their students regardless of course modality with no added proctoring fees to students.

About Proctorio

Proctorio is an online third-party remote proctoring service that allows for proctored Canvas exams and quizzes to be taken at home with a student’s computer. Students can access the Proctorio servers 24 hours a day and every testing session is recorded. This is not a live proctoring system. Each testing session is recorded, and the software flags any suspicious behaviors for review by the Professor. The program includes a lock down browser to prevent students from accessing other digital files from the machine they are testing on.
