Exam and Assessment Information

All the information you need for booking your exam or assessment

We assess our candidates in different ways according to the qualification. You may be asked to:

Brightspace exam
sit a session-based exam
submit coursework or
undergo a combination of assessments.

You'll find the assessment information you need on the relevant qualification page and, once you've registered, in your MyLIBF account.

Depending on your qualification, you may sit an exam at a test centre or via remote invigilation at home.

For all on-demand multiple choice Brightspace exams – your exam will be delivered via our platform Brightspace, which is where you access your course materials:

You can use any PC/laptop and sit your exam whenever you are ready - 24/7.
Your exam link will remain accessible until you either complete your exam or your registration period expires.

Before starting your exam, you will be expected to pick up your laptop/webcam to do a full 360-degree scan of your testing space. You must therefore ensure that your equipment is in full working order and can be easily manoeuvred.

For all session-based exams on Brightspace – your exam will be delivered via our platform Brightspace, which is where you access your course materials. The date of your exam is on your MyLIBF and will be automatically scheduled for you.

Your exam is accessed through Brightspace and will be proctored by our partner Integrity Advocate. The date of your exam is in the My Studies section of your MyLIBF.

You’ll need a quiet space to set up your device, have the appropriate identification and be ready to do the specified checks.

In advance of your exam, you must have reviewed the system requirements and permissions to ensure your operating system, browser and devices meet the minimum requirements - Getting started with Integrity Advocate. It is not possible to use tablets and mobile phones to complete your exam.

Your device must be equipped with a working camera and microphone, which can be easily manoeuvred for the full 360-degree scan of your testing space. We would also strongly recommend that you run a system check to familiarise yourself with the proctoring technology. Ensure you are using the same computer and internet connection that you plan to use for your exam and run the system test at the same time of day to get a better indication of the connection you are likely to have.
