Online examination process

ICC Academy final exams are conducted via live proctoring over an internet connection, offering a more flexible alternative to traditional assessment methods. This allows learners to complete their exams comfortably from their own computers while maintaining the integrity of ICC Academy’s programmes. Upon successfully passing the final examination, learners will receive an accredited ICC Academy Certificate for their respective programmes.

What does ‘live proctoring’ mean?

The ICC Academy exams are all live-proctored. This means once the exam begins, an invigilator or ‘live proctor’ will supervise the assessment via your webcam, allowing candidates to complete the exam from their computer without compromising the standards or integrity of ICC exams.

Our partner, ProctorU, streamlines the proctoring process into three simple steps:

  1. Monitor the test-taker via webcam to ensure active supervision.
  2. Secure the computer screen in real time, preventing unauthorised activities
  3. Authenticate the test-taker’s identity and testing environment, confirming compliance with examination requirements.
