Proctoring Guide:
In SecureProctor system, we have 3 personas to conduct smooth Remote proctoring:
- Authorizer: Allows the candidate to start the Proctoring and enter into the system.
- Proctor: Proctor the candidates allocated to them for the duration of their exams.
- Super Proctor: Monitors the Proctor activities and keeps a tab on the complete Examination drive. This functionality provides an end-to-end visibility to the complete Live Proctored drive.
Authorization Process:
Usually, the first step towards monitoring the candidate is to first authorize him/her to start the test. When you select the assessments to authorize, you would start seeing the all the candidates who are currently waiting to be authorized.
Candidates will be available in Authorization Queue only if Authorization setting has been enabled for the Quiz/Assessment they are attempting.
For every candidate that you see, you will see the following window( the UI of window can be switched using "Switch View" toggle, as shown in the image below). In the window, you will also see the registration fields of the candidate along with the live clicked photo and ID card photo.
To authorize a candidate, you can perform various action using the various buttons available on the authorization window.

Proctor Selection
Super Proctor can select multiple proctors at a time. The system will allow Super Proctors to select Proctors till the maximum possible candidates for the selection is <= 200. E.g. if Proctor-Candidate allocation ratio is 1:50, then a Super Proctor can select only 4 Proctors at a time.
Candidates allocated to the selected proctors (except disconnected candidates) are loaded in the Super Proctor’s classroom view. The classroom view behaves exactly as it does today for a Proctor in “My Candidate” view.

Using the feature, the Super Proctor can check out the number of candidates who are currently connected with the System in various Quizzes/Assessments.
