Exam Setup

Complete Guide on How to take your exam through Integrity Advocate 

Your examination MUST be done in the Google Chrome web browser on a laptop or desktop computer. This requirement is clearly stated in the exam Terms and Conditions and is non-negotiable, as it ensures the integrity and security of the exam process. 

Please read this document to understand how to set up the online invigilation software that will be used on the day of your Semester exams. Once you have read the document, please complete the 'Exam Set Up'. This will take you through the set-up stages and ask you to complete 3 questions about your experience. It will only take a few minutes to complete. If you experience any issues then please contact the Web Support team websites@naturopathy-uk.com. 

Your examination MUST be done in the Google Chrome web browser. Performing your examination in another web browser will begin your attempt and start the timer. IT Support will not be able to grant the time back if this happens, so it is imperative that you ensure you are using Google Chrome.

If you do not have Google Chrome installed on your desktop/laptop, you can find the download link here: https://www.google.com/intl/en_uk/chrome/.
