As an Academic member of staff, how does SITS affect my work with students?

What do I need to do with a hand in date?

For future cohorts, you will put the dates directly into SITS. If there are extenuating circumstances for why this date must be changed, you need to inform student records immediately. For the first cohorts, please collate these
locally and further communication will be sent to explain the process. 

How do I refer students for Academic Misconduct?

Referrals for 2023 / 2024 assessment modules will be raised in the same way as before. For assessments where the module has started in the 2024 / 2025 academic year, the referral will be made through the staff portal. 

How do I decode course codes?

We have guidance available on course codes.

How do I decode my modules on NILE?

There is a helpful document on NILE which shows you how to decode NILE module codes.

Can NILE sites be merged?

With the new set up, there should be less need for NILE merges. Many grades will have a direct journey from NILE to SITs, which NILE merges could affect.

How do I access SITS?

SITS is available to all staff who might need to view a student record, run basic reports or undertake administrative processes. We have guidance available for using eVision. We recommend that you save these links as a favourite in your browser. SITS is also a tile on the Staff Hub. 

How will student apply for Mitigating Circumstances?

The Academic Advice and Student Support team have guidance available for staff and students.

Can I still use OASIS?

As we are transitioning away from our former student record system, QLS, Oasis is no longer current. If you need current details for a student, such as their phone number, you will need to check on SITS.  The only updates on OASIS will be for students whose modules were started in QLS, so their grades are being finalised in this system.

Support with using SITS

There are staff help guides for using SITS. There are separate guides for students.
