Password tests are accessed via the Internet. Institutions using Password tests are given two sets of unique codes. The first accesses the tests themselves, and the second accesses the test-takers results in user-friendly reports. Each institution using Password has access to its own test-takers’ results only.
Each Password test is different and unique. As a test is downloaded via the Internet, a group of randomised questions is drawn from the vast data bank of questions in the Password system. New questions are constantly being put into the system, old questions retired or rested and questions are constantly monitored to check that they are still performing well.
Each Password test is run on secure software. All information is transmitted using Secure Sockets Layer, the same type of technology which protects online payments. Whilst the test is in progress, browsers are locked down, which means that test-takers cannot access any other applications on the PC delivering the test, neither can they print, screen capture or access any sources of information on the Internet or otherwise.
Accessing Password tests and test results is extremely easy and the system’s outstanding reporting tools enable immediate certification.
