AV8’s virtual course model was designed by aviation andinstructional experts with the specific intention of being delivered viatechnology. When AV8 searched for an online invigilation solution for theircourse assessments, they wanted a vendor who placed the same priority onstudent experience.

“ProctorU’s automated invigilation platform paired withtheir Live Launch service allows our students to concentrate on the actual examand not worry about the process of getting into the exam,” says Jon Anderson,CEO of AV8. “ProctorU greets our students with friendly human interaction andmakes sure everything runs smoothly, resolving any technical issues that mayarise.”

ProctorU Auto with Live Launch uses a live human proctor toverify test-taker identity and secure their testing environment, then launchesthem into their exam where an automated platform driven by artificialintelligence (AI) monitors and flags suspicious behaviors for review. Theentire process is recorded, providing the necessary evidence in the event thata test-taker attempts to gain an unfair advantage or steal exam content.

“Remote invigilation is mutually beneficial to test-takersas well as training and certification bodies,” says Scott McFarland, ProctorUCEO. “It provides test-takers a convenient, cost-effective way to earn degrees,certifications or credentials while giving companies the ability to reach awider audience of candidates at a lower cost than setting up a physical testingcenter infrastructure.”
