Proctorio Recognized By 2021 EdTech Awards as Top Data Privacy, Testing, and Assessment Solution
Summary
In its eleventh year, the EdTech Awards recognize tools, leaders, and innovative trendsetters across the K-12, Higher Education, and Skills and Workforce sectors. EdTech Digest notes that this year’s finalists and winners were determined based on various criteria, including pedagogical workability, efficacy and results, support, clarity, value, and potential. This year, Proctorio took extra steps to enhance its model and provide test taker-facing notifications that let users know where and for how long their data will be stored at the start of each exam. Microsoft Edge’s tracking prevention features include transparency and control over trackers from websites that collect and store browsing behavior data. “Data privacy consistently remains a top priority and key conversation for us, especially as we continue to support high volumes of test takers using our platform during the pandemic,” said Mike Olsen, Founder and CEO of Proctorio.
