About the Remote Invigilation
All students enrolling on the AQ2016 standards MUST register with the AAT by the 31st August 2022 in order to study and/or achieve your qualification. The new standard of AAT Q2022 will be launched on the 1st September 2022 and will soon be available from learndirect – click here to find out more.
AAT Remote Invigilation has removed the need to travel out of your way to complete your examinations. Instead, you can complete them online via the internet. Allowing you to sit your examination at home, or from another secure location.
This makes the assessment stage of your learning journey much more feasible and streamlines the entire examination process. You won’t need to travel to a location that’s out of your way. Which can reduce your expenses, minimise the time you need to take off work or find childcare.
You will be assessed over the internet via a recorded video that will be submitted to the AAT for review. AAT Remote Invigilation assessments can be booked by both learndirect students and anyone else studying a course with the AAT.
Once you have completed your assessment, and it hasn’t been flagged for any suspicious activity, your results will be released within fifteen business days.
Please note, all assessments must be scheduled a minimum of five days in advance. This provides you with sufficient time to download and install the necessary software, complete the required screening checks and receive the confirmation email.

Entry Requirements
For your AAT Remote Invigilation to go ahead, you must satisfy screening processes such as:
- Sitting your exam in a suitable room that is free from distractions and interruptions
- Showing your photo ID, taking a photo of yourself, conducting a room scan using your webcam and submitting this for approval to the invigilators
And meet particular technological requirements such as:
- Ideally using a wired connection to your modem instead of Wi-Fi to prevent a loss or drop in connectivity that would void your examination attempt
- Use a laptop or computer with a webcam and microphone
- Use a Windows or Macintosh operating system
Please note, a full list of the AAT’s Remote Invigilation Requirements, reasonable adjustments and special consideration requests can be found here. We strongly recommend you read this before booking your exam.

You will be emailed a keycode to gain access to your online assessment.
Once this has been entered and you have checked all details are correct, you must accept the Terms and Conditions before you can start the assessment.
At this point, you will need to:
