Remove a member of staff from your module

What is it?

You may want to remove yourself or a staff member from a module, for example, if the staff member no longer teaches on the module or has left the university. It is important to make sure that staff lists are up to date as well as the student lists to ensure best practice and data security.

What does it do?

In contrast to the enrolment process, Instructors on modules do not have permissions to remove other Instructors. If you would like yourself, or another member of staff, removed from one or more modules in My Dundee then we have a process for this.

What should I know?

To remove yourself or a colleague from the module, you will need to complete our Staff Unenrolment Form with all the required information. On completion, an e-mail will be sent to Help4U where your request will be actioned by a member of the Educational Development team. If we have any queries regarding the unenrolment, we will contact the person(s) named in the form.

Step 1: Within the form, you have the option to specify particular module codes you need staff removed from, or you can request things like “all modules with the prefix ZX” or “all modules from the academic year 19/20”. This can be useful when a staff member has moved discipline/School and needs removed from a bulk of modules.

Step 2: Make sure to include the UoD username for the staff member(s) you require removed.

Step 3: Note the full module code you require them removed from (e.g. ZX11002_SEM0100_1920) as this will help us to ensure they are being removed from the correct instance of the module.

The reason we do not do staff enrolments or removals centrally is that modules contain secure data that should only be accessible to authorised members of staff. Neither Educational Development nor Digital and Technology Services (DTS) know who should and should not have access. It is the responsibility of the module leaders and the Schools to manage this access.
