Only QMplus administrators can bulk enrol users onto QMplus course areas. See detailed guidance here on how to do this.
This guide is aimed at teachers who can raise a ticket with the IT Services Helpdesk with the necessary information to request users to be bulk uploaded into the QMplus course area (or bulk uploaded into groups).
This guide covers:
- Enrolling users to a QMplus course area by creating & uploading a CSV file.
You will need to be an enrolled teacher on the QMplus course area in order for this request to be authorised.
TIP: If you would like to enrol only a handful of users onto your course area, teachers can do this manually by following the information in this guide, without needing to raise a ticket with the IT Helpdesk.
Step 1: You should gather the following information:
- The user’s username,
- First name,
- Last name,
- Email,
- The course short name (see instructions to locate this below)
- Role they require on the module (see possibilities below).
Step 2: Enter the information in the Blank bulk upload csv
Step 3: Select CSV (Comma Separated Value) as the format type and save the file.
Step 4: Attach the file to a current open ticket or raise a new ticket on the IT Helpdesk for a member of the Support team to action.
Course Short Name:
Please note: The course short name and role is required. You will also need to supply either the usernames or email addresses.
TIP: If you are unsure of the course short name, you can find it under the course area Settings section in QMplus.
