Technical requirements

Honorlock is integrated into Canvas. The only supported browser is Google Chrome on Windows, Mac or Chromebooks. Students will need a compatible web camera, speakers and microphone, and will need to download a Honorlock browser extension. Students may be prompted to change some browser security settings and then restart Chrome the first time they use Honorlock. Students should plan to take the test in a well-lit space to ensure a good recording of their test session. Honorlock has a list of their system requirements.
