Test supervision via Microsoft TEAMS
How can you install TEAMS?
You do not need to install TEAMS. You can also enter the TEAMS room via your browser. If you want to install Microsoft TEAMS, you can find it here: https://www.microsoft.com/de-at/microsoft-teams/free.
How do I get into the virtual exam room on TEAMS?
Please join the TEAMS meeting (see the link above) a few minutes before your appointment. You will be taken to a waiting room and will then be admitted to the meeting on time. Use your first and last name at TEAMS and leave your webcam and microphone turned off at the beginning. In the meeting room you will receive further information on how to take the test.
How are identity checks and test supervision carried out?
The test supervision and the control of your proof of identity is done via TEAMS. You will need a computer with camera (webcam) and microphone. Place the device in front of you. Camera and microphone must be activated and pointed at you to enable supervision during the entire test. At the beginning you have your ID card with photo ready for the identity check (passport, identity card or driving license).
After the identity check, the supervisor will explain to you how to pass the admission test. Afterwards the supervisor will explicitly ask you to open the admission test.
You do not have a computer with a camera?
The TEAMS video chat platform also works on tablets and smartphones via the Microsoft TEAMS app. If you do not have a camera on your computer, install this app on your mobile device. Have your smartphone or tablet with camera ready and go to TEAMS on that device. Place the device in front of you. The camera must be activated and pointed at you so that you can keep an eye on this device throughout the test.
Even if the test supervision is done via your smartphone, you will nevertheless need a computer (laptop or desktop PC) with a keyboard and a stable Internet connection to complete the online admission test.
