BLE for Staff
Welcome to the support page for the SOAS staff using the BLE. We hope you find using the BLE with your students beneficial.
For a quick introduction to getting started in the new Moodle environment please download the guides via the links on the right.
Common Questions
- What should I do if I’m having problems logging into the BLE?
If you have never logged into the BLE before, your account should be created the first time you log in. Remember to use just your staff ID as your username and not your email address. If this still does not work, contact BLE Support. - What should I do if I have forgotten my password?
Your BLE password is the same one you use for your email and IT account. If you have forgotten these please contact the IT Helpdesk. Their office is in the Library Reception. - How do I get access to my courses on the BLE?
Your Faculty Administrator should now have the ability to enrol staff directly onto courses in the new Moodle environment. Contact either them or BLE Support. - How do I upload materials to my course or make changes to the existing content?
Please refer to the guides on the right of this page.
Staff Workshops and Forthcoming BLE Clinics
We will be running a series of workshops and training sessions on the BLE throughout the 12/13 academic session. These are usually advertised on the front page of the Moodle BLE site or via Staff Development.
We are keen to involve as many of you as possible, so feel free to sign up and come along with your comments and ideas. You can also contact us to arrange custom training or support sessions for you or your team.
