ATC examinations are delivered through the ATC Proctor Dashboard — a purpose-built remote proctoring platform combining live monitoring, identity verification, and full session recording. The credential is only as strong as the exam behind it. This is how we keep it strong.
An independent credential means nothing if the examination behind it can be gamed. Employers who verify an ATC credential in our public registry are trusting that the person named on the certificate sat the exam themselves, alone, without unauthorized help. Remote proctoring through the ATC Proctor Dashboard is how we make that trust defensible — attempt by attempt, with evidence.
Trained proctors observe candidates in real time throughout the timed attempt — video, audio, and screen. Proctors can pause an exam, intervene, or terminate an attempt on the spot when the integrity of the session is compromised.
Before the exam is released, each candidate presents a government-issued photo ID on camera. The proctor confirms the ID matches the registered candidate, and the verification is logged to the attempt record. No match, no exam.
Every session is recorded from check-in to submission. Flagged events are time-stamped for post-exam review by the registrar's office, so a questionable moment can be re-examined exactly as it happened — days or weeks later.
Automated flags — additional faces, off-screen glances, audio events, focus changes — are layered on top of the live proctor's own observations. Every attempt carries a complete audit trail supporting the credential decision.
Candidates need a computer with a working webcam and microphone, a government-issued photo ID, and a quiet, private room. Full technical requirements and permitted materials are listed on the examination instructions for each credential. The rules of conduct are set out in the Examination Integrity Policy.
For training providers and partner organizations: the ATC Proctor Dashboard is exam-agnostic by design. Approved providers running ATC cohorts get scheduling, live proctoring, and attempt-level reporting through one platform — and the same infrastructure can support additional certification programs.
