While Cengage supports our learning platform integrations with several Learning Management Systems, proctoring solutions are third party services that we do not directly support. The LMS and proctoring solution versions we have tested might not be the same versions you use. For this reason, your process and results might vary and Cengage cannot guarantee support for any third party proctoring service.

Students should download the Proctorio extension ahead of time, or they will be prompted to do so when they open their assignment.

This procedure is for Blackboard courses with the Original Course View.

This procedure is for Blackboard courses with the Ultra Course View.

Before you begin, you must have a link to your SAM exam published in Canvas. However, students should not access the exam directly through this link. To avoid confusion, consider creating a new module titled "Do not access" and let your students know that you will be notified if they attempt to access the exam through this link.

You must first create a password protected exam in SAM, and add a link to your exam in Blackboard.
