Introduction¶
SES (Safe Exam Support) is a platform that delivers exams securely through Safe Exam Browser (SEB). This guide explains how to take an exam as a student.
How It Works¶
- You receive an 8-character access code from your teacher (e.g.,
AB12CD34) - You go to the exam entry URL for your institution
- You enter the code on the exam entry page
- You authenticate via your institution's SSO login
- A SEB configuration file is downloaded
- SEB opens and you take the exam
- You submit your answers
- You close SEB
System Requirements¶
- Safe Exam Browser installed on your computer (download from safeexambrowser.org)
- A stable internet connection
- Your institution login credentials
Important Notes¶
- You must use Safe Exam Browser to take the exam — regular browsers are not allowed
- All exam content is encrypted and secure
- Auto-save runs every 30 seconds
- Tab switching and focus loss are monitored for exam integrity
- The exam timer counts down automatically and submits when time runs out
