Redhat Remote Exam Setup

I have gone through the requirement of remote exam and I see that I need to purchase a lot of things in order to give this exam - an external webcam, a wired mouse, a wired keyboard & a USB and additionally need to arrange a personal laptop as well since I use a corporate laptop where USB is not allowed.

I don’t understand why Redhat has made this remote exam procedure so complex and expensive, I have given remote exam with Linux Foundation also and they provide very easy setup, just pass their compatibility test and login to their platform to give exam…that’s it….and you can use laptop’s webcam, additional monitor screen, wired/wireless mouse, wired/wireless keyboard.

Redhat has something similar or one has to arrange all this ?

You can select nearest KIOSK exam center if you like. So the requirements things like webcam keyboard mouse and other equipments not needed to buy.

By the way remote exam setup built with few restrictions and to keep the exam standards. So I guess we have to adhere with the rukes and regulations they provided.

Using wired devices will make sure the no on else insted of seated person involves the exam. 

Red Hat is practical base exam, hence they need to make sure no any capturing softwares installed on your personal devices, that might be the reason of booting given OS from pendrive.

Just use your laptop keyboard and trackpad if you don't wanna buy anything or need extra usb slots, can't get around the external webcam requirement though, can't you get temporary local admin on your work laptop to accomodate that?

I think you mean "isn't adequate" or "is inadequate" if it failed

Re-run the test and set microphone level to max then talk into your mic as it is testing, just say TEST TEST TEST until it turns green, this is what I had to do.
