Candidates to be monitored by human proctors

As the NITTT examination will be conducted through remote proctoring, candidates will remain under the supervision of human proctors throughout the test. Proctors will monitor candidates' movements as well as their computer screens during the examination.

If a proctor notices suspicious eye movements or any unusual activity in the examination environment, the candidate may be asked through the chat window to move the laptop or webcam to show the surroundings.

A warning may also appear on the candidate's screen if suspicious behaviour is detected. Candidates who fail to follow the proctor's instructions despite repeated warnings may have their examination terminated.

Candidates have been advised to keep a close watch on the chat window during the examination for any communication from the proctor.

For queries or clarifications, candidates can contact the NTA Help Desk at 011-40759000 or 011-69227700, or write to NTA at nittt@nta.ac.in.
