Remote proctoring is the act of invigilating an online exam from any location to clamp down on aberrant behavior or cheating instances to ensure a cheat-free assessment environment. A remotely proctored exam is administered by experienced human proctors, an AI Algorithm, or both to maintain integrity

Live proctoring is proctoring through expert human proctors in high-stakes exams. Mercer | Mettl is proud to have the largest team of trained proctors. We provide the following services:
One trained proctor invigilates multiple students simultaneously. The proctor to student ratio can be 1:16, 1:32, etc.
One trained proctor invigilates one student at a time.
The proctors can be from Mercer | Mettl's team or the educational institute. Proctors and students also have the functionality to undertake two-way communication.
Record and review proctoring is best suited for low-stakes exams. Proctors review the recorded video feed of students, ascertaining the flags generated by the AI bot.
The flags are combined into a report called the 'Credibility Index,' with details such as timestamps, duration, etc. Reviewers can see the video to note the instances where AI has specifically flagged suspected behavior.
