Online CBE Resources - Blackboard 

Blackboard Credit by Exam tests will be administered online and monitored using a secure data monitoring system called Proctorio.  Proctorio locks down the browser to ensure a secure testing experience for each student.

Technology Requirements 

• An electronic device, such as a Chromebook, Desktop, Laptop (PC or Mac) with a webcam and microphone
• Chrome Internet browser access
• Proctorio Chrome Extension  

Photo ID 

As part of the test security and verification process, the student will be asked to present a Photo ID prior to beginning the test.

Acceptable forms of Photo IDs are:

• School ID,
• State Issued ID (Driver's license/Permit), or 
• Student Photo from PISD Pinnacle Gradebook App. 

*A parent/guardian may present their personal photo ID to verify a student’s identity if the student does not have a photo ID.
