Internet Based Testing

For test sites with reliable internet access, only:

The ICCP provides an internet based delivery of its' examinations. However, a test proctor/technical support person is required at the test site. This person may be a certified holder, professional engineer, doctor, teacher, or similarly attributed individual acceptable to the ICCP.

In most cases teachers administer this test to their students, who are often closely seated together in a computer lab. There is strong security around the test since all test items are scrambled randomly and this reduces any chance of cheating during the test delivery.

An Internet based ICCP test is accessed from a secure web server and test items are transmitted in an encrypted format. The encrypted test results of each test taker are stored on the web server.

A person taking this test may choose to have his/her scores marked online at the end of the test.

Additionally a test taker may elect to have an assessment document emailed to her/himself by providing their email address to the ICCP Office.

At the beginning of the test the test taker(s) have to enter in a password. The proctor is also required to enter in her/his password to initiate the examination. The proctor is to keep her/his password secret and protected, even as she/he enters it to execute the examination over the internet. Full instructions are mailed to each proctor well in advance of the examination date/time.

The proctor's role is to verify the physical identity of the test taker and to ensure that the examination is correctly administered. The proctor must be available at the start of the test and during the entire delivery of the examination.

Signed documents confirming conformance to the testing format are returned to the ICCP office on completion of the examinations. The ICCP reserves the right to void any examination result which occurs in violation of its testing requirements.

All appeals are forwarded to the Director of Certification for resolution.
