Candidate Requirements
Testing Equipment: Hardware and Environment
Exams are delivered online and closely monitored by proctors via webcam, audio, and remote
screen viewing. Candidates must provide their own front-end hardware to take exams,
including a computer with:
● Chrome or Chromium browser
● reliable internet access
● webcam
● microphone
The workstation on which the hardware (i.e. desktop or laptop) is placed must, aside from the
required hardware, reveal a clean surface with no obstructions overhead or underneath.
Candidates should ensure that their webcam is capable of being moved in case the proctor
requests that the Candidate pan their surroundings to check for potential violations of exam
policy.
● If multiple Candidates are taking an exam at the same time in one location, then at least
four feet (1.2 meters) of empty space on all sides must be enforced or privacy partitions
must be installed.
Hardware Compatibility Check
Candidates should run the compatibility check tool provided by the Exam Proctoring Partner to
verify that their hardware meets the minimum requirements. The tool is located at
https://www.examslocal.com/ScheduleExam/Home/CompatibilityCheck. Select “Linux
Foundation” as the Exam Sponsor and “CKA” as the Exam. (At this time, only Chrome and
Chromium browsers are supported.)
Candidate Identification and Authentication
Candidates are required to provide government-issued photo identification before the Exam can
be launched. Any current, non-expired government ID containing Candidate’s photo and full
name of Candidate in the Latin alphabet may be used for identity verification. Examples of
acceptable forms of government-issued photo ID include, but are not limited to:
● passport
● government-issued driver’s license/permit
● national identity card
● state- or province-issued identity card
If a current, non-expired government ID containing Candidate’s photo and full name of
Candidate in the Latin alphabet is not available, the candidate may provide to the proctor a
notarized English translation of the ID along with the non-Latin character photo ID.
