From 24th April 2017, it is no longer a responsibility of the University’s Placement team to connect mentors with student’s accounts. Please read this guide to understand the new process.

If you need to access to validate their work, you should speak to them and ask them to link you.

Students will only grant you access for a designated period of time (a day, a week, a month etc). If you require this be extended, again speak to your student and explain why.

Assessment (in blue) is correct. This will allow you to validate work and give comments and feedback.
If the wrong type of access has been given to you by your student, please inform them and ask them to redo.
It must be your student who does this.
