Improve test security and keep candidates happy with live remote proctoring
Remote proctoring refers to the process of monitoring an examinee while they take the test, to ensure that they meet the integrity and security rules. The security level can vary widely, just as the stakes of the test can vary widely. There are actually 4 different levels of remote proctoring, as outlined below – so choose wisely!

The 4 types of remote proctoring
Option 1: Record and Review
Publish your exams and set them up for Record and Review remote proctoring. This facilitates testing from anywhere and anytime, on demand. Candidates simply show up and take the test whenever they feel like it (within your availability window), and the video is recorded. This makes it extremely flexible, easy to implement, and validates examinee results.
The examinee’s webcam and screen are recorded during the test process, and these videos are reviewed within 48 hours by our trained proctor team.
This approach is best suited for medium-stakes exams such as recertification.
Option 2: Live Professional Proctors
Need to deliver certification exams with greater reach? You need the added security of a real human proctor in real time. You send examinees to our Live RP login page where they can take the test. The proctor will verify their identity and exam title, establish rules, set up a second camera (tablet or phone), and help the candidate log into the test.
This approach, via our partnership with MonitorEDU, is also beneficial in that it requires no downloads, no prescheduling, no automated emails, no API setup – just quick, easy, and secure exam delivery.
Option 3: AI Flagging Only
This approach is highly scalable and cost-effective – perfect for low-stakes exams like university classroom tests.
This approach augments the Record & Review approach with artificial intelligence flagging. This is not a generic LLM like ChatGPT – there are custom algorithms to look for 2 faces, no faces, unusual sounds, phone-sized rectangles, and other specific security concerns.
Option 4: Bring Your Own Proctor
This style of remote proctoring entails you training your own internal staff to serve as proctors, using our software. This provides a flexible and cost-effective approach, especially if, for example, you are utilizing university staff which is already “paid” and therefore you are not paying external remote proctors. It also allows you to customize the proctoring process to other languages or specific situations.
The audio/video streams and chat will be saved for review later, in case there are infractions.
Partnering with you to improve your online exams
“Working with FastTest and MonitorEDU has been game-changing for our certification program – especially after the disruption caused by the pandemic.
While most programs using traditional testing centers had to terminate their examination delivery process, we were able to continue with our computer-based examinations through remote proctoring.
FastTest and MonitorEDU have provided a simple end-to-end solution for our candidates and we couldn’t be more grateful for our partnership.”
