Enrolment for microcredentials
Enrolment Steps
What I need to enrol
We recommend enrolling from home using your personal smart phone, laptop or home computer to enrol online because your place of work may restrict access and prevent online enrolment from working. You will need:
- your passport or immigration documents or three alternative UK identity documents (birth certificate, NI letter, Photo ID, for example a driving licence)
- a debit/credit card to pay fees yourself or email a copy of a sponsor letter from your employer with the invoice addresss and amount they will pay on your behalf to Student Records (fees)
Login to your Swansea University account
Log in to My account with your Swansea University username, tap the Intranet app and Start Enrolment link.
When your application was confirmed you should receive an email with your Swansea University user name, for example 1234567@swansea.ac.uk and a second email with a temporary password and instructions how to change your password and setup multi-factor authentication, normally by downloading "Authenticator" to your smart phone.
If you cannot login phone our IT Service Now helpline 441792 295500 open Monday to Friday, 9am till 5pm.
Right to study
The first step of enrolment is to confrm your identity and right to study at a higher education provider:
- UK or Irish learners can upload a UK or Irish passport page with your photo or three alternative UK identity documents (birth certificate, NI letter, Photo ID, for example a driving licence). When your upload is verified by the Student Records Office the right to study tab will be "ticked" to indicate this step has been completed.
- International or non-UK/Irish residents with settled status, please email a copy of the passport page with your photo making sure you include your student number to Student Compliance services and we will get back to you as soon as possible.
After the right to study check is completed, the next steps should take 10-15 minutes.
