What is Respondus Monitor?
How Do You Get Training?
Respondus Monitor, a companion to Respondus
LockDown Browser, is a virtual proctoring solution for
courses that are fully online. Respondus Monitor protects the integrity of online assessments by recording
the testing session for each individual student through
the use of a webcam and microphone.
