The National Institute of Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) offers a remote testing option for ASE recertification tests. With the flexible, convenient remote option, service technicians can obtain ASE recertification without having to go to a test center.
ASE uses Prometric’s ProProctor online remote platform for all ASE recertification tests, excluding L1 and L2 tests. Since all tests are scheduled in advance, technicians can choose when to complete a test based on their schedule.
Remote Recertification
The remote tests and on-screen experience with a live proctor are the same as in-person testing. Throughout the testing, multiple live proctors provide monitoring and are available to offer assistance. (Fig. 2)

To take the recertification tests remotely, there is a check-in and screening process similar to that at a test center. Before the test can launched, the ProProctor application must be downloaded and installed to a compatible computer or laptop. In addition, a room for taking the test must be secured and prepared in advance. Technicians are responsible for meeting Prometric’s environmental requirements to ensure a controlled environment for testing.
