Sophia has now added ID Verification to its final milestones:
Jumio Verification
You may be prompted to provide an ID for verification through Jumio. Jumio verification is used to confirm a student's identity by verifying their government-issued ID and comparing it to a subsequent selfie.

Ok i hate this but also I hate the typing verification, which has never worked for me. I always have to type it out twice before they will send me an SMS. Wish I could just request the SMS direct.

Hmm, is this for every class now at Sophia.org or just specific classes? Or is this a one time thing?

It is currently listed for every class with a final milestone. Whether it is prompted for every class, not clear yet, but it is now part of the instructions for all of them.

I see, I guess they've decided to 'verify' people for each and every final exam! It's a good addition to just the Biometric proctoring and IP logging they currently have, adding this secondary measure should stop future cheats, hopefully...
