Every exam is proctored:
- A live human proctor watches your screen and webcam the whole time.
- You need to show a 360 degree view of your room, walls, ceiling, table, floor, ears, scratch paper, etc.
- You must use an external webcam elevated on a stand that can see both you and your screen at all times.
- You must show your face and your passport or ID card before each exam.
- You can’t talk, stand up, get out of view, or take a break during the exam.
Although I’m sure some people could find a way to cheat, they make it extremely difficult. I have taken over 30 online proctored exams from WGU, Study.com, Sophia.org, Saylor.org, TOEFL, and Georgia Tech’s OMSCS, and I can confidently say that WGU’s proctoring process was by far the strictest.
