RSPH eAssessment

We offer a range of eAssessments options for some of our most popular qualifications. If you’re an RSPH-accredited qualification centre you can offer your learners the option to sit an exam and receive a qualification from the comfort of their home.

What is RSPH eAssessment?

eAssessment is an optional form of learner assessment that we are offering to RSPH qualification centres. It provides the opportunity to assess candidates online, using the Surpass testing platform, an experienced and trusted eAssessment provider.

What are the benefits of eAssessment?

It supports a blended learning approach.The introduction of an eAssessment platform means that, should you wish to do so, this final part of the learner journey can also be carried out online.
It can make an assessment more accessible for candidates. Candidates can be assessed from almost anywhere when they use an eAssessment platform, saving them time and money.
It can increase the number of learners you can reach over a wider geographical spread. With eAssessment, you can also offer learners end-to-end remote delivery, from training to assessment.

Who is the eAssessment provider, Surpass?

We have partnered with Surpass, a trusted eAssessment provider, who have delivered millions of online examinations over the years. All communications to learners, reminders about eAssessment dates and exam paper submissions are handled through the Surpass system.

As well as handling learner’s communications and results, their system also has rigorous remote invigilation in place to ensure the standard of all qualifications that are awarded as the result of someone sitting an eAssessment.

The eAssessment was very well organised and well presented. The instructions were easy to follow and you felt at any point that you could ask for help if you were experiencing technical issues. I think the service that you provide at RSPH is amazing.

I couldn’t praise you all enough for the communication and help you have given me to get started on the Health Improvement Courses. I have found the whole experience with you so enjoyable.

How does eAssessment work in practice?

The new eAssessment platform is fully integrated with the Centre Area, which allows you to continue using this system to make bookings for assessments.

You can book an eAssessment by following these simple steps:

Log into the centre area
Specify a timeslot that suits your candidate(s)
They receive an email with a link to their eAssessment (which will go live at the time that you specified when booking)

When it’s time for the learner to take their eAssessment, they simply click the link in their email and follow these steps:

Complete a number of checks on their webcam and microphone and confirm their identity by showing a valid photo ID
The eAssessment will start. The learner will be recorded by their webcam as they complete the eAssessment, with the footage either being viewed live by an invigilator or recorded for later review by expert invigilators to ensure the integrity and security of the eAssessment
As soon as Surpass confirms to RSPH that there are no issues revealed by the remote invigilation (normally within 72 hours), RSPH will be able to process the tests and provide the results to centres through our Centre Area in the normal way.
