Enrolling multiple students


As an alternative to single enrollment you can add students in one or more batches using a template downloaded from the registration screen.

This will create accounts for each of those students. Just as with single registration, you can allocate a Product Access Code if it is available; or the student can enter their individual code when first registering.

In either circumstance, when students sign in to MyEnglishLab they will find themselves already enrolled on your course.

Step 1: Create a course.

Step 2: From your settings, go to Course Management and pick Course and select Edit. Then click the Register Students   button.

Step 3: Click on the Register Multiple Students tab and you will see an empty Batch History screen.




Step 4: You can download a template which provides you with a formatted spreadsheet for you to add students. You can    do this by manual input, for  example by cutting and pasting the information from an extract from an administration system.



The Access code and password fields are not mandatory. Drop down boxes allow you to select language and country of residence. 

You may enter the user name or allow the system to default (first name+ last name)

You may enter a password (which the student must change when first signing in, or a system generated password to be produced following import. 

It is recommended that you save the file on your local file system before importing.

Step 5: Import the file

Select the Import file button and browse to find the file you have just saved.

You will have created a batch and can be seen in this view:




Step 6: If the batch is incorrect it will be highlighted in red for you to correct (select View) Otherwise the batch is Pending and may be submitted. Note that you can submit at any point.

You can load students in a series of batches if that is more convenient.

You can discard an entire batch. 

You can view the batch.

Step 7: Creating the accounts. When the batch is submitted it is dispatched to the registration system and the status changes to Processing. It’s not necessary to wait for processing to complete. You will be notified when a batch is processed (on the yellow bar at the top of the screen).

At that point the batch status changes to Successful.

Step 8: Notify the students of their sign-in information – MyEnglishLab allows you to generate a zip file of PDFs for student which contains their login details. View the batch and then click Student Information button.


Error Correction

After you load the template, or following submission, you may have entries which are invalid. The row will be highlighted in Red.




To correct the information, click on View and you will see the detailed records contained within the batch.




The incorrect entry is highlighted in red. Click Edit and you can identify and amend the missing or invalid information.



You can then submit the batch. 

If the error is identified after submission, it is corrected in the normal way and the batch can be re-submitted (don’t worry about any correct records – accounts will already have been created and the registration system will not create duplicate accounts.
