Students download and install the LockDown Browser client (this is a one-time process). With most LMSs, LockDown Browser will start automatically if an exam requires it to be used, so the student does not need a download link.
However, Blackboard Learn Original and Canvas Classic Quizzes require institutions to distribute the unique URL below for downloading the LockDown Browser application. Students then start LockDown Browser before navigating to the exam. See the LockDown Browser Administrator Guide for your LMS for more details.
This download link is unique for your institution and can be used by faculty or students:
Note: Don't use this version of LockDown Browser for institution-owned computers; use the Installer for Managed Computers instead.
