Prepare for course-specific remote exams with LMS access checks, Chrome extension setup, webcam and microphone testing, privacy review, time-zone planning, and permitted-material rules.
There is no single Canadian university Proctorio format. Each course controls its LMS, settings, exam window, permitted materials, and review process, so preparation should begin with the official course page and institution guidance.
Use this as a cross-institution checklist, then follow the final instructions from your university and course team.
Usually launched from the institution LMS, such as Canvas or Moodle/eClass.
Google Chrome with the Proctorio extension when the course requires Proctorio.
Settings can include webcam, microphone, screen, keyboard, web traffic, or screenshots.
Course staff or institution reviewers determine whether flagged activity matters.
Canadian universities use different LMS platforms, exam windows, start procedures, and support contacts. Begin with the syllabus, LMS quiz page, and faculty exam notice so you know the exact platform, permitted materials, ID requirements, and timing rules.
A Proctorio exam commonly needs Chrome, the Proctorio extension, a working webcam and microphone, reliable internet, and a quiet writing space. Some courses also require a pre-exam system test, photo ID capture, room scan, screen recording, or specific workspace rules.
Canadian guidance often explains what Proctorio records, who can review recordings, where data is stored or accessed, and when the extension is active. Read those notices before the exam and keep the course, institutional, and Proctorio live-chat support paths ready.

Canadian university Proctorio use is institution- and course-specific, and some current course pages may use other tools such as Smart Exam Monitor or Respondus instead. Public guidance from Canadian institutions shows common patterns when Proctorio is assigned: it can integrate with an LMS such as Canvas or Moodle/eClass, requires Google Chrome and the Proctorio extension, may record webcam, microphone, screen activity, keyboard activity, web traffic, or desktop screenshots depending on instructor settings, and leaves final review decisions to the institution or course team. UBC Sauder online exam guidance describes Proctorio activation inside Canvas with CWL credentials, a quiet uninterrupted writing space, recorded video and audio, a start window, a pre-exam system test, and course-staff review of flagged activity. University of Alberta guidance describes Proctorio for eClass Moodle exams on a student's own laptop device when a department approves it, with microphone check, webcam check, ID photo, room scan, Proctorio Gradebook review, and 24/7 Proctorio technical support through live chat. Preparation should start with the specific course instructions, then confirm LMS access, browser and extension readiness, webcam and microphone, ID expectations, time zone, start window, permitted materials, privacy notices, accommodations, and institutional support channels.
No. Proctorio use depends on the university, faculty, course, LMS, and instructor settings. Always follow the official course instructions.
Institution guidance commonly requires Google Chrome with the Proctorio extension when the course uses Proctorio.
Depending on course settings, it may record webcam, microphone, screen activity, keyboard activity, web traffic, screenshots, or connected-monitor information.
Institution guidance commonly states that course staff or approved university reviewers decide whether recorded or flagged activity creates an academic-integrity concern.
Confirm the LMS route, exam window, time zone, allowed materials, ID expectations, privacy notices, accommodation process, device readiness, and support contact before the exam opens.
Open the LMS exam page and note the exam window, duration, start procedure, password or access rules, permitted materials, and support contact.
Verify Chrome, the Proctorio extension, webcam, microphone, internet, battery or power, and any required practice quiz or system check.
Turn course outcomes, lecture objectives, practice questions, and review notes into a study map for the specific exam rather than relying on generic university advice.
Set up a quiet room, permitted notes or tools, student ID or approved photo ID, time-zone reminders, and a clear route to technical support.
Use the guide to self-serve, or talk to a coordinator if you need help mapping timelines, official requirements, or troubleshooting day-of logistics.
