Identification must contain your full name and a photo of yourself. Contact your your institution’s helpdesk for a full list of valid forms of ID.
Your identification must be valid on the day that you submit your baseline identity profile scans for verification.
It can take up to 24 hours for your face and identification scans to be verified after you submit them.

Before your first proctored (video supervised) test, you will be instructed to submit scans of your face and your photo identification.

Once these scans are processed to verified that they match, an encrypted baseline identity profile is created and stored for up to 365 days.

At the start of each proctored test, you will need to submit a face scan to be checked against your encrypted profile.

Contact your institution’s helpdesk as soon as possible and clearly state:
  • The name and date of the test you are enrolled in
  • The reason you missed the deadline
You can log into the Proctortrack dashboard to check on the progress of your baseline identity profile verification at any time. This will show whether your baseline identity profile is still being processed, has failed or has passed. If your identity verification:
  • Fails,  you will be notified via email. Make sure you retake the onboarding test and resubmit your scans as soon as possible.
  • Passes, you will be emailed test details at least 24 hours before your scheduled main event test.

If your baseline identity verification fails, you will receive an email notifying you that your onboarding scans have been rejected. The email will include the reason for the rejection.

Make sure you retake your onboarding test as soon as possible and take the reasons your previous scans were rejected into consideration, to help avoid your scans being rejected again.

  • Make sure the room is well lit
  • Keep the background as plain as possible

This means that your device went offline during the test, and was still offline when you submitted your test. While offline, your test attempt saves to your local device but needs to be sent to the online server to be marked once your test is finished. If you see the yellow icon, contact your institution’s helpdesk where someone will talk you through the steps you need to take to send your test attempt to the online server.
