Moodle access to External Examiners for 2020-21 AY

The External Examining Team often get asked about how to set up Moodle access for External Examiners (EEs). This is not part of our remit, though we have provided an FAQ on this – IT and Moodle Access for External Examiners – on our External Examining webpage.

When EEs are appointed the External Examining team set them up as a visitor on the Services System and provide Departments with details of their UPI, username and email address. Departmental teams are asked to record these details for future use, and instructed to pass these details onto the Departmental IT representative in order for them to arrange access to Moodle for the EE. 

Moodle access is managed by Departments, and is a process that needs to be repeated on an annual basis for each year that the EE is appointed. 

We strongly encourage colleagues to check and set up Moodle access for their EEs during the Autumn term especially for newly appointed EEs. This will prevent issues occurring prior to Exam Board period in the Summer term.  

If you do not know who your Departmental IT rep is, please ask your Departmental Manager. If you do not have a Departmental IT rep, please liaise with Faculty colleagues for further guidance on providing Moodle assess to EE.
