What's new for 2023?
Have you sat online ADIT exams before with Exam4? The main change that you'll likely notice when you come to sit your exam this time is that the process for opening your question paper at the start of the exam has changed.
Because of the way the question paper is now accessed, on exam day you will only be able to complete your pre-exam setup at your scheduled exam start time. As it will take a couple of minutes to complete the setup, capture your exam ID and access your question paper, this means you will actually start your exam a little after your scheduled start time. However, as you have a 15-minute window in which to start your exam, this will not be a problem - as long as you open your question paper to start the exam within this 15-minute period, you will not lose any time.
For example, if you open the question paper 5 minutes after your scheduled start time, you can finish your exam 5 minutes after your scheduled finish time. We encourage you to complete your candidate checklist and make a note of the time at which you start your exam - this will help you ensure that you finish at the correct time, and get the full 3 hours 15 minutes in which to answer the questions.
The following step-by-step guides take you through the process of downloading and installing Exam4, starting your exam in Exam4, and submitting your answers at the end of the exam:
