Voice Biometric Identification is a method for verifying student identity.
After providing three samples, your voice will be recorded. Within the course, you will be prompted to speak into your device’s microphone at random intervals. This is very important because if you fail a voice biometrics sample while taking the course, you may have to re-register for the course.
Before beginning, be sure you can locate your device’s microphone and that it is enabled. Setting up your microphone will vary depending on what type of device you are using.
