How to extend digital exams for secure skill-based assessment using desktop applications
Assessment platforms - such as Inspera, Wiseflow, or LMS quizzes - do not provide an isolated environment to securely launch third-party desktop applications.
When used on BYOD devices, common lockdown methods, like Safe Exam Browser, present serious risks: students can access local or recent files, use embedded AI tools, browse the internet within the application, and easily bypass other restrictions.
Most importantly, because locally installed applications are used, there is no uniform setup across devices. This leads to unequal exam conditions and potential data loss.
This webinar will introduce a transformative approach aimed at helping education institutions extend their existing assessment platforms and finally deliver secure competence-based exams using real-world software on both institutional and student-owned devices.
You’ll learn how to:
- Deliver exams securely in labs and BYOD settings
- Enable the secure assessment of competencies on desktop applications (e.g. Excel, MATLAB, R, Python, SPSS...)
- Provide a consistent student experience across devices
- Reduce IT overhead with scalable solutions
For: Teaching & Learning teams, assessment coordinators, LMS admins, and academic IT professionals.
