Troubleshooting

If your external assessor is not receiving the email to mark your work, follow these steps:

  1. Have your external assessor check their spam or junk folder in the email account.
  2. Have your external assessor do a search of their inbox for an email with the subject line Work to Assess from UQePortfolio.
  3. Confirm the email address for your external assessor and then contact your school to have them check the email address is a correct match to the one recorded in the ePortfolio.
  4. Withdraw your submission and submit your work again to the external assessor. Follow the ePortfolio withdrawal and resubmission guide for instructions.
  5. Have your external assessor complete a Lost Invitation Retrieval. This will require them to enter the email address that has been provided to your school by the external assessor.
  6. If still having problems, contact the Library AskUs service for further assistance.
