At the moment, MFA is not required for our LMS.  If it were, I would not do anything special for MFA during exams. MFA 
is only needed to get logged into the platform. It is not required for continued use during the exam.  I’d communicate 
with Faculty that students need their mobile devices or whatever they are using to access the exam.  Faculty can give 
an extra two minutes at the beginning of the exam time to allow students to get logged in.

You could make a conditional access policy, just for exam time if necessary, that would allow any authentication from 
the campus network to bypass the MFA requirement.  You can do it for everything or just for the applications you need 
it for.  Once exam time is over, turn it off.

Subject: [SECURITY] MFA- Students during exams

Friends, while implementing the MFA for students using Microsoft MFA, how the students can access the MFA during exams? 
Because mobiles are not permitted while attempting the exam.

Any ideas?
