Hello,
I predominantly use a Macbook, and I only own a Mac. I see for the CSA exam that I have to use a PC with either Chrome or Internet Explorer (I will be using Chrome). Has anyone taken the CSA exam with the external camera on a Chromebook laptop? That would be the least expensive option for me, since I will have to buy a laptop just for the CSA exam.
Any information is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hello,
The minimum requirements for Windows, to include browser, are listed in the link you shared, such as saying:
- The latest version of Google Chrome or Firefox
Kryterion does suggest and want people to use specific web browsers as they are the most reliable and successful for indviduals.
As far as a Mac though, the author could still utilize the Mac, taking into account they meet the requirements.
I think you may have meant "there is no requirement for only PC", not browser.
In any case, just wanted to clarify that!
Good links though to their site for the author to reference in any case 🙂
As a side note, the answer the author, I would not recommend a chromebook and you probably wouldn't be able to install the software "Sentinel" on it anyway.
Please mark reply as Helpful/Correct, if applicable. Thanks!

Hi Jason,
Thanks for the info! I read the browser requirement on the page to claim the CSA exam voucher. It definitely said either Internet Explorer (which surprised me) or Chrome.
I will definitely take a look at those pages for the supported OS types.
Appreciate it!

Hey Vive,
Like Jason said, the Sentinel Secure software is not supported on Chromebooks, however there is a Windows and MacOS version available for download. Is there a reason you aren't taking the test on your Macbook? My entire dev team exclusively uses Macs and we have all passed our CSA as well as other SNOW exams on our Macs.

Hi Forrest,
Awesome! I think my confusion came from the Now Learning page that only mentioned Windows supported machines, and nothing about Apple machines. Great to know your team was able to take the exam on Macs. Thanks so much for the info!
