Add candidates to a sitting

5 min Examinations staff

Add people one by one, bring in a whole licensure session, internship intake or indexing list, or upload a spreadsheet.

What you will learn

Open the sitting and choose the Candidates tab.
Add people in one of three ways:
- Add people: search by name, registration number, index number or email, tick them and press Add them.
- Add from a list: choose Admitted candidates of a licensure exam session, Interns finishing an internship intake or Indexed students (pick the school and academic year), then add them. People already added are skipped.
- Upload: an Excel or CSV file with one column, registration_number, index_number or email, one person per row.
Each person added gets an SMS and email with the date and a reminder to check their computer and try the practice exam.
To give someone extra time (for example for a disability), type the minutes in the Extra time column of their row and press Enter.
To take someone off, press Remove. They no longer see the sitting in their portal.

Each candidate’s status: Not started, Writing, Submitted, Absent or Stopped, and how they were added.

Pick an answer for each question, then press Check my answers. Nothing is saved or sent.
