What are the environment requirements?

You must have a private space free of people and distractions. Public spaces such as libraries and restaurants aren't allowed. Your computer must be on a cleared desk or table surface with a standard chair. You can't test from a bed, couch, or overstuffed chair.

You must have a smartphone (Android OS: Version 10.0 and higher or iPhone (Apple) IOS Version 12.0 and higher) positioned in landscape using the front-facing camera, keeping the test taker, computer monitor, keyboard, and mouse within view at all times. Phone stands, phone cases with built-in stands, or a clear glass cup can be used to prop up the mobile phone during virtual exams.
