ARTS Security at Exams
You can use the secure exam mode when taking electronic tests in the computer labs at the Faculty of Arts. Students log in with a special account and work in a restricted environment that minimizes the possibility of cheating.
Please note: For license reasons, the secure browser used in exam accounts does not support playback of some common types of audiovisual files (such as mp4, mkv, etc.). If you use videos in your trial accounts, you must convert them to a supported WebM format.
If you would like help with checking or converting video formats, please feel free to contact us using the "Request Assistance" button.
