Honorlock integration for proctored exams
Certification and exam owners proctor Intellum assessments with Honorlock, including ID verification, browser lockdown and phone and voice detection. Admins connect Honorlock, and content editors set up each exam.
Common uses of the Honorlock integration
- Certification program owners run on-demand proctored exams that learners take when they are ready.
- Reviewers check flagged attempts against the high, medium and low incident thresholds set for each exam.
- Program owners turn on auto-fail so an attempt over the threshold fails without a manual review.
How the Honorlock integration works
Honorlock sets up the link between your organization’s Honorlock account and Intellum, and an admin enters the Honorlock API key and API URL in Settings › Apps. Content editors turn on Honorlock for each assessment, set high, medium and low flag thresholds, pick an Honorlock instructor and choose whether to auto-fail.
Learners take the exam in Chrome with the Honorlock extension. After they finish, Intellum imports the session timeline and incident counts. Attempts over a threshold wait for review.
How to set up the Honorlock integration
