Online Respondus exams
Find out how to prepare for Respondus exams and what to do if you have technology issues.
We know that doing exams in person can be difficult for some students, especially those who live a long way from campus. That’s why some courses have the option of online exams. If you're in this situation, you might be required to use a program called Respondus LockDown Browser (usually just referred to as Respondus) for your end-of-semester tests. This platform makes it easy to confirm your identity and complete timed assessments securely at home.

Privacy protection
Respondus is fully committed to our privacy policy. This means your information won't be shared with any third parties. Only your teaching team and technical support staff will have access to the recording of your exam (unless there's a need to investigate academic misconduct, in which case authorised University staff may also review it).
