What Happens Next?
NOCTI will send an email with a link to register and schedule the test through the remote proctoring system. Testing sessions must be scheduled before the user code expiration date. Test takers should confirm the expiration timeline with their NOCTI Site Coordinator.
What is Needed?
A stable
internet connection and a computer workstation that meets online testing
requirements are required. A functioning webcam and microphone are also
necessary. A valid photo ID is required for identity verification. Photos or
screenshots of an ID displayed on a phone or other electronic device will not
be accepted.
Testing Environment
Testing must take place in a private, quiet space where the participant can remain undisturbed for the duration of the session. Public spaces (e.g., libraries or coffee shops) are not permitted.
During check-in, the test taker will be asked to use the webcam to show the testing environment, including the ceiling, floor, desk, and surrounding areas. All prohibited items (e.g., food, beverages, books) should be removed in advance.
No breaks are permitted during the testing session. Communication is only allowed with the remote proctor.
