The Office of Technology and Digital Innovation (OTDI) announced a Request for Proposals (RFP) in December 2023 for an enterprise-wide proctoring tool or tools to support teaching and learning at the university. Several vendors submitted bids, and an evaluation committee made up of representatives from across the university assessed and tested the vendors’ proctoring tools. The evaluation committee recommended Ohio State pursue a contract with Honorlock and continue using the Respondus Lockdown Browser tool.
The Office of Technology and Digital Innovation (OTDI) is leading a Request for Proposals (RFP) for an enterprise-wide proctoring tool or tools to support teaching and learning at the university. Our goal is to ensure the university has the most accessible and user-friendly platform available, making it easy for instructors and students to take exams in a protected environment.
