Once an instructor or assessment administrator has created a Verity-enabled third-party assessment, students can access the proctored assessment from their Learning Management System (LMS). To learn how to launch an Automated assessment or an assessment in the Lockdown App, please follow the relevant section below.

Accessing an Automated Third-Party Assessment in LMS

  1. Log in to your LMS (i.e. Blackboard, Canvas, D2L Brightspace, or Moodle), and access the Verity LTI link in your course.
