Jacob developed a guide on this specific topic and would like me to update on the Ultra Essentials.

The guide is now stored in OneNote under "Importing groups into Ultra - Jacob"


Importing Groups into Ultra

What is this resource for?

This resource covers the different aspects needed to successfully import your group sets, groups and students.

Why import?

Whenever we are dealing with large cohorts and they need to be split into groups, it’s preferable to do what’s called a batch enrolment. This both saves time and minimises the risk of user error.

What do I need?

In order to enrol your student(s) into their group(s) you need to first create your Group Set(s) and Group(s).

If you are starting from scratch you can download a sample file. In the event you are going to be doing this a multitude of times, it’s recommended you rename it from its default name to a more unique identifier e.g. the module code.

The sample file has different column headers which can be described as such: Any columns with the asterisk(*) are mandatory to fill out.
