Kryterion was the first to bring online proctoring to the global market and was awarded the USDLA 21st Century Distance Learning Award

One of Kryterion's goals is to turn the job of proctoring from an incidental or part-time gig for professors and other educators into a bona fide "career path," said Mr. Dorman, the chief executive

Options to verify a test taker authentication will be discussed in detail during the 50 minute presentation

Proctors are trained to watch for unusual behavior, including eye movements, unusual noises, or moving about, and they can stop the test, send a warning, or take other action at the discretion of the institution.

Partnerships between institutions and technology developers are becoming increasingly critical to educational programs

The presentation will provide TxDLA attendees with information to help distance education programs choose appropriate authentication solutions to maintain academic integrity

“We have ambitious goals and the expertise of Mr. Meissner in the development of operational and testing systems and the implementation of major programs will be very valuable to us in achieving our targets.”

In support of the Department of Education, Kryterion Chief Scientist David Foster attends and contributes as an external expert.
