Examity Proctoring

Live proctoring with Examity is only available for use by virtual (V) courses. Faculty teaching eligible courses will be contacted by ATS staff prior to the start of the quarter. Questions can be directed to onlineproctoring@ucdavis.edu.

Examity offers online live exam proctoring, which consists of students completing an exam while being observed and recorded via screenshare and webcam by a professional proctor. This service is intended for high-stakes exams only. Faculty are strongly encouraged to consider alternatives to proctored online exams to assess students.
