Remote Proctoring for MSP and CSD Pilot Exams

Teresa Amey 04.09.2020 Certifications

We have great news for individuals interested in taking our Master Safety Professional (MSP) and Certified Safety Director (CSD) Pilot Exams. Due to the unforeseen circumstances surrounding the Coronavirus, NASP and our partners at Scantron, had to temporarily suspend on-site testing for the MSP and CSD pilot exams. As stay-at-home orders and social distancing requirements are still in effect, we have gained approval to use Live Online-Proctored (LOP) test administration.

Live online-proctored (LOP) test administration allows candidates to complete their examinations from their own computers via an internet connection at a time and place of their choosing. Testing sessions are available 24/7/365, based on seating availability.

Scantron uses its proprietary software, Scantron PASS™, to deliver examinations to candidates. Scantron partners with Examity for the online, real-time monitoring of testing candidates.

The candidate’s computer must have webcam capability as well as a microphone and speakers, and the environment should be quiet to avoid distractions and to ensure that the online proctor can hear everything at the candidate’s location.

There are technical requirements, such as an adequate internet connection, to ensure that the proctor can access the candidate’s computer and that the session can proceed without internet disruption. Candidates are informed of the computer specifications in advance of the testing session.
