External assessors/supervisors need to have a PebblePad account before students can share their workbooks with them. Requests for accounts need to be completed by the external assessor using the form in the link below.
Please note: accounts can take 2 weeks to be processed and are both created and managed by the Health Placements team.
Any changes to accounts such as email addresses or names can also be done by using the form in the link below.
Once your account has been created, you will receive a welcome email from PebblePad with your login information and password details (please also check your junk/spam folder if you have not received this). As external assessors, your username will always be your registered email address.
You can log in to PebblePad from any internet-connected device (computer, laptop, tablet or smartphone). The link to PebblePad is at the bottom of this section. We recommend using the Google Chrome browser.
If you forget your password, you can reset it from the login page. Once the password reset has been emailed to you, check your junk mail or spam folder in case the reset link is there.
Once you have logged in, you will go to the External Assessor's dashboard.
Under 'Items that have been' shared with you are the MYEPADs that students have shared with you.
Under 'Workspaces you have access to', are your links to ATLAS with access to students' workbooks, if you have been given access by the University. For further information on ATLAS and Workspaces, please ask your affiliated university staff member.
From the external assessor dashboard, practice assessors/supervisors may see some workbooks with a green shared label and others with a blue assessment label.
The items that have a blue assessment label are the ones that will allow you, as a practice assessor/supervisor, to write and comment on the different pages.
With the items highlighted in green, the student has used the option to share “With People”, which is meant for non-PebblePad users. This option will allow assessors to see a workbook, but it won’t allow them to write on the pages and use the assessor’s fields.
Students need to share, using the option "With an External Assessor". The guide for student sharing can be found in the link below.
You will need to request a PebblePad account for the University of Northampton, even if you already have one with another institution.
When you first log in, the system will ask you if you wish to merge accounts.
If you do merge your accounts it will allow you to keep one single password. You may receive another email and link to set one password. Please follow the instructions from PebblePad.
When you see this dialog box, please remember to tick the box Don't show this message again. So the system will not ask you to merge accounts every time you log in.
