F5 is NOT implementing online proctored exams

F5 is not currently planning to provide online proctored exams. The principal reason for this is the lack of exam security that accompanies online proctoring. While most systems do a great job of ensuring that the individuals taking the exam are not cheating, F5 remains concerned about the possibility of our exams being pirated and published on the internet, which would potentially devalue the certification.

F5 is in the process of re-imagining our exam process, how they are designed, and how they are created.  A key element of this process is to make our exams more resilient, which would allow us to deliver exams online.  Although it will likely take some time to redeploy our existing exams, we are currently expecting the first of these new exams to be released in CY23, Q4.  We cannot guarantee if/when any particular exam will become available in this delivery method.
