British Council Delivers Remote Proctored Exams At Scale for ACCA 

The candidate experience has been at the heart of all planning for the service. The importance of clear and detailed communications with candidates prior to the exam day cannot be over emphasised, and priority was given at all times to ensuring ACCA was able to provide candidates with a full understanding of every step in the process. This included helping the candidate understand what steps they need to take to ensure they are prepared, terms and conditions of the remote proctoring service, and the potential issues the candidate may experience if the guidance is not followed.

Sarah Corcoran, Director of e-Assessment Transformation, ACCA commented;

“Following on from our success with introducing remote proctoring for our foundation exams, we are delighted with the new service the British Council offers to use their network of highly trained invigilation staff to provide both remote proctoring hubs and staff to enable ACCA to deliver high stakes session based exams on a large scale. Over an incredibly short period of time we worked closely with the British Council and our technology partner to build the capacity for high volume remote proctored exams and offer this reassuring contingency to our candidates.”
