What you do with QL is awesome but we do not have the resources in Exams to input the results, so like David we use a hybrid homegrown system - in our case using Excel spreadsheets.

 

I am frankly shocked that anyone would let Tutors input results onto Edexcelonline as there is no audit trail visible to centres as to who enters what, hence the difficulty of validating the grades for audit purposes would be massive.

We use Unit E, but most of the work happens outside of the MIS system!

 

 

 

That sounds quite impressive, what MIS system do you use?

 

For general info on the original question, we use a mixture of paper SRFs and tutors completing the grades online with restricted access.

 

Thanks,

 

Amy

 

 

 

Hi Mark

 

This year we sent all out achievement claims in the EDIFACT  EDI format.

 

We imported reg numbers in to our MIS system, then emailed out group SRF's. Curriculum completed the units numbers attempted and grades achieved - and we set up a template that converted this to the EDIFACT file format.

 

It has saved hours - especially in terms of filing the SRF's, and not having to use Edexcel online during their peak periods.

 

We can then do a weekly import of achievement data by matching reg number/ scheme code/ learning aim from the claim reporting section of Edexcel online against enrolment data - then get MIS to bulk update the achievements.

 

Thanks

 

 

 

I'm waiting for my account manager at Edexcel to come back to let me know what's happened to all of mine!  

 

I've sent off several thousand and simply don't have the resources to input manually until Edexcel come up with a bulk upload solution (which they've been 'working on' in all the yrs working as an EO - 10yrs+)

 

As a matter of interest how many of you in the Exams team do the input and how many is it the lecturing staff?

We have the same issue here with SRFs that are still "in transit". The whole process of using SRFs is unconvincing, so hopefully we will complete our move online for next year.
 
I am always worried about deleting the ULNs to get things through - presumably this results in the qualification record ceasing to be attached to the ULN and hence invalidates the theory of the ULN linking all the records together.
