Online exam consultation

CePro supports controlled online consultation workflows for AMC and Ans exams.

Plan early​

Announce the consultation to the VDI team at least one month in advance using the relevant registration process.

If a computer room is required, reserve an appropriate room through the EPFL room-management process.

Ans consultation​

Ans can publish an exam for consultation during a defined time window.

Recommended controls include:

  • restrict publication to the consultation window;
  • disable downloads;
  • use an additional consultation password when supervised access is required;
  • decide whether consultation will use local computers or the consultation VDI.

For the safer VDI workflow, coordinate with CePro so the consultation virtual environment can be prepared for the expected number of students and time window.

AMC consultation​

For AMC, CePro prepares the scanned copies for consultation and places them in a controlled virtual environment. Copies are organized per student and protected for consultation.

Privacy and supervision​

Choose the consultation setup according to the level of control required. A normal local browser environment may allow screenshots or photographs; use the controlled VDI workflow when stronger restrictions are needed.
