After the identity of the candidate has been established the invigilator will perform an environment check. They will scan the room with the candidate’s webcam device to ensure the candidate has no access to any unrequired materials or is accessing additional help. Throughout the test, the invigilator is supported by artificial intelligence (AI) to monitor a whole range of audio/visual clues and candidate behaviours, all of which are flagged for review.
