Proctortrack – Identify Verification

All students registered for online courses must verify their identity using Proctortrack software. This verification covers all online courses for a one year period.

If you are enrolled in an online course and are required to submit verification, a course named “Online Verification & Identity” will appear in your Canvas Dashboard. Simply click on the course and start the process.  You must open and read each page before the next page will open.

Once you have read the materials, you will begin the process to confirm your identity.  There are three steps:

1. Your face will be imaged in three poses: frontal view, left side, right side.
2. A picture ID (UCNJ ID, driver’s license, passport) is scanned and matched to your face.
3. Your knuckles are scanned to create a biometric measurement.

NOTE: If you have completed the online verification process within the past 12 months, you do not have to complete the process again. The identity verification is valid for 1 year.

If you are not familiar with CANVAS, the learning management system that is used for online course work, the Academic Learning Centers located in the library hold workshops for students to learn the system.
