Exam administration

Mezur, a complete system

Mezur covers the entire online assessment cycle: authoring and validating items, organizing them into structured banks, building questionnaires, administering examinations securely, scoring constructed responses through decentralized teams, and producing results. Proven in large-scale diagnostic and certification assessments, the platform moulds itself to each organization's own processes and delivers a fully multilingual experience, for both the interface and the content.

Item authoring

From drafting to final approval, every item moves through your organization's own validation process — a process you define directly within the platform.

Item bank management

Each item bank rests on a customized, secure classification structure, enriched with metadata that feeds your reports.

Summative and certification assessment

Whether certifying a course of study or awarding a credential, varied and rigorously validated question formats support your high-stakes examinations.

Online scoring

Constructed responses, including written work, are scored remotely by your teams under the real-time supervision of your coordinators.

Results production

Tables, charts and dashboards are generated automatically and exported in multiple formats, broken down along your axes of analysis: region, institution, criterion.

Large-scale surveys

Administer surveys to thousands of respondents simultaneously and consult strategic data as soon as it is entered, without the delays inherent in paper-based collection.

Exam proctoring

VigiAcces, the secure exam browser

For remote examinations, VigiAcces wraps the exam session in a secure shell: the workstation is locked down, identity is verified and every event is documented — following a simple principle: trust, not surveillance. Six core functions define our secure browser.

Locked-down browser

For the duration of the exam, VigiAcces takes control of the workstation: mandatory full screen, unauthorized applications blocked, and any attempt to leave the exam environment detected.

Identity verification

The candidate's registration is first validated, then their identity is confirmed with an ID document and a photo before the exam begins: the person taking the exam is indeed the person expected.

Workstation qualification

Before the exam, candidates check their own camera, microphone and connection: most technical problems are resolved before exam day.

Captures during the exam

Room scan, webcam, screen and audio are captured according to the proctoring profile chosen by your organization, then uploaded securely and hosted in Canada.

In-session support

A two-channel chat connects the candidate to the proctor, and a help agent immediately answers technical questions, governed by strict per-session guardrails.

Incident log

Every significant event — forbidden process, leaving full screen — is recorded with its context. VigiAcces detects and documents; judgment remains human.

Integration

Mezur and VigiAcces, one complete solution

The two products form a single solution: same exam sessions, same access codes, same per-organization management. Proctoring is not a module bolted on after the fact — it is a full layer of the architecture, and it can also connect to other exam platforms through a secure partner API. Here is how the layers of the solution fit together.
