Configure Exam Security

You can assign several layers of security to restrict an exam's availability to learners and supervisors. For example, if you choose Assignment Access Code for the enrollment type, candidates must enter the code to launch the exam. You could embed this in content they are required to read, and provide instructions in the exam's reference information (entered in the Details tab).

You can restrict access by enrollment and by IP address range. You can also use the IP address range to restrict participants and reviewers reviewing completed exams.
