Why an On-Demand Model has a distinct edge: 1. As on-demand “record and review” proctoring solution is technologydriven, there’s no limit to the number of exams an institution can manage at a given time. We work with customers who administer 20, 000 + exams in a given year. 2. On-demand proctoring enables exams to be monitored without humans keeping watch, students can take tests from anywhere, at any time. 3. Affordability is one of the most attractive aspects of online education. The on-demand proctoring model becomes the best/obvious choice as it's the lowest-cost option. Bottom Line: Students choose an online course or program for the flexibility of studying anytime-anywhere. Adding rigid requirements like exam scheduling disrupts the anytime learning model. On-demand proctoring is more convenient, more secure and less expensive.
