We provide answers to your questions about the preparatory course platform.
Connecting to the platform
How do I log in?
You're waiting to receive an e-mail from the TICE cell with a link to the account we've created for you.
IN NO CASE DO YOU CREATE AN ACCOUNT YOURSELF!
You haven't received an e-mail?
It must reach you no later than the Tuesday before the first Saturday of classes or, if you registered after the information session, within 4 working days of your registration. If you don't receive this email, check your junk mail box and make sure your mailbox isn't overloaded!
My login and password are correct, but I still can't log in...
The UNamur - Formations platform works with an LMS (Learning Management System), called MOODLE, which is sometimes temperamental with certain browsers (as a reminder, a browser is the tool used to go on the Internet, such as Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Safari, Internet Explorer...).
If you're sure your login and password are correct, but you still can't connect to UNamur - Formations (error message), here are the various things you need to do:
On computer
Clear your browser's cache and try again.
If it doesn't work, try on another browser (the two best are Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome)
On tablet
Empty your browser's cache and try again.
If it doesn't work, restart the tablet.

Platform access
I have access to the platform, but I don't have any courses...
- Either you've created an account yourself with an address different from the one with which you registered for the preparatory courses
- Or you're a UNamur student and you're trying to log in with your "@student.unamur.be" address. @student.unamur.be".
Log in with the address you used to register for the preparatory courses or use the login "Exmed_000000" (000000 being your registration number for the preparatory courses).
One of my courses has disappeared
On UNamur - Formations, a course has two modes: a visible mode and a hidden mode.
When a teacher is working on their course, it's sometimes best to put it in hidden mode so that you can work on it without students being able to see the changes directly. This prevents you from seeing unfinished content or answering a quiz before it's finished, for example. When a course is "hidden", it no longer appears, either in your dashboard or in your left-hand column. This does not mean, however, that you are no longer registered for the course. All you have to do is wait for the teacher to finish his or her work.
If a course doesn't appear in your list when you're supposed to submit an assignment or access a resource, the teacher may have forgotten or handled it incorrectly. In this case, contact the teacher, and in case of emergency, you can always contact us at tice@unamur.be or 081/72 50 75.
