When logged into the VRTY Platform as the Admin, there are 2 different ways to create a Student User account.
1. SELF-REGISTRATION
The self-registration account process can be used when creating many Student accounts at the same time. The process is handled by a weblink which is shared with your Students. From the link they can register and complete the User Account set-up process by themselves. Below is the process:
- Log into your account.
- Please note that your profile name (at the top right-hand corner) states that you are the ‘Admin’ for your school/organisation.
- *If is not stated as the ‘Admin’, please contact your VRTY account manager asap.
- Select [Admin] from the menu bar on the left-hand side of the screen.
- Under the MANAGE USERS section, select [Student] from the drop down option. This will set the page options to managing Student accounts.
- Under the ENABLE REGISTRATION LINK FOR STUDENTS, select the [Enable] button on the top right-hand side of the screen. This action will enable a registration link to appear in this section.
- Copy the registration URL link and share it (eg: via email) with the Students you’d like to invite to set-up an account on the VRTY Platform.
- Once received, the Students can click on the link. It will open up an internet browser page for the Students to fill in the VRTY new user form with their details and submit it to VRTY.
- VRTY will then notify you, the Admin, via email that a new Student account has been created and needs approval and activation.
- As the Admin, you have two options to complete and activate their registration process:
- Click on the [Proceed] button in each of the notification emails.
OR - Go back into the [Admin] section on the VRTY Platform, where you’ll see the names of the Students who have completed their registration forms. You can see their account Status as PENDING. Select the small [Tick] icon in [Action] bar to approve the request. The status of the applicant’s account will change from PENDING to ACTIVE.
- Click on the [Proceed] button in each of the notification emails.
- VRTY will then send a confirmation email with a randomly generated login password to the newly created user account’s email. They can then activate the account via the activation link through the email and start their journey with VRTY platform. It is strongly recommended that the Student changes their password to their own unique password.
2. MANUAL ACCOUNT SET-UP
You can create and manage each account individually. Below is the process:
- Log into your account.
- Please note that your profile name (at the top right-hand corner) states that you are the ‘Admin’ for your school/organisation.
- *If is not stated as the ‘Admin’, please contact your VRTY account manager asap.
- Select [Admin] from the menu bar on the left-hand side of the screen.
- Under the MANAGE USERS section, select [Student] from the drop down option. This will set the page options to managing Student accounts.
- Under the MANAGE STUDENTS section, you will see the names and details of the Student accounts in your organisation. To manually add a Student account, select the [Add Student] button on the right-hand side of the screen.
- A pop-up box will appear, where you can fill in your Student’s (name & email). Then click [Save] to create and save the account.
- VRTY will send a confirmation email with a login password to the newly created user account’s email. The Student can activate the account via the activation link in the email and begin using the VRTY platform with their newly set-up account. It is strongly recommended that the Student changes their password to their own unique password.
- If you have multiple Student accounts to set-up, please repeat Steps 4 and 5. To check on the process, all Student accounts for your organisation will appear in this section.
