Features include facial recognition and liveness detection, speech detection, GPS proximity mapping, and script upload functionality. The app is designed to prevent cheating and collusion in online examinations and assignments and works on all types of smartphones, including those smartphones with older features.

Remote invigilation is the method by which formal exams are supervised over the web, so instead of candidates having to come to a test centre, they can take their exam on a computer located anywhere in the world and they will be remotely invigilated.

The app uses artificial intelligence to authenticate photos, flag recordings containing speech, and generate verification codes for integration into an LMS (Learning Management System).

The Invigilator is a cell phone based tool that allows non- venue based assessments to be written in a more controlled and monitored environment. This tool assists your institution in further upholding academic integrity, which is to the benefit of all stakeholders, including you the student.

IRIS Invigilation (IRIS) is a software program that helps provide educators assurance of assessment integrity during online and remote assessment. IRIS records audio, video, and computer screen activity for the duration of a test/exam.

Online remote invigilation essentially recreates the exam hall experience online. Candidates sit the test online at a place of their choosing, such as the home or workplace, using their own hardware. The exam is invigilated by a proctor who will watch a maximum of 6 candidates at any one sitting.

The Invigilator App. The Invigilator is a tool specifically developed for the education sector. The app allows examiners to choose from a variety of photo authentication and speech recording tools, matched to the level of security required for each assessment.

Invigilators must not talk to or distract learners during the test. If a learner wishes to leave the room for any reason and intend to return to continue their exam they must be accompanied. The invigilator must remain with them at all times and ensure that they cannot access restricted material.

One invigilator is allowed to invigilate a maximum of 20 learners. Where there is a sole invigilator he/she must have the facility to summon help without disturbing learners taking the test. Learners should be seated with a minimum gap of 1.25m between them.

Any issues of ambiguity as identified by the learner must be recorded on the BTEC Test Log. These issues must NOT be addressed with the learners at the time of the test. No requests for help from learners in relation to the test can be dealt with during the test.
