Once downloaded, open the Respondus Lockdown Browser. The browser will tell you to close various programs before taking you to the JCCMI login page. Log in using your Canvas credentials (e-mail/password) and click on your class.
The browser will ask you to do a scan of the room you are in before you begin. If you click out of Respondus while you’re taking the exam, you will not be able to go back into the exam, so don’t click out of Respondus while you’re working.
