The Institute verifies identity of a student who participates in class or coursework by using a secure login and pass code. The student must first sign into the ICDE course management system using a secure login and pass code.
The student must login to www.icde.edu.gh with the ID number assigned to the student upon admission and a pin number issued specifically to the student through the Information Technology Department (COLT). The student must change his temporary password to a privately selected one to be used for all future logins into the course.
The student is allowed access to the coursework only after the registration process is complete. The student can only access the course through the secure login and pass code. Each time the student enters the course the ID and password must be verified. If the course is a hybrid course, the student must meet at least four sessions at the learning centres which allow proctoring of tests. Passwords of online students are known only to them.
The University shall continue to seek additional and improved methods to help ensure that students participating in online courses, and taking online exams, are the same individuals enrolled in the classes as the distance education program is more fully developed through the approval of funds upon request from the Institute’s Governing Board.
The two-tier approach ensures the confidentiality of the student and his/her coursework. The University shall ensure that there is no release of educational records without student permission. Just like all students at GCTU, students taking online courses are informed of their rights when they are provided access to the University data via the ICDE website.
