If successful, you will see the screen below.
Requests for home access are, in the first instance, sent to the person who is
identified as your supervisor within ESR. This person will need to log into ESR and approve (or reject) the request by viewing their notifications. These notifications will
remain with your supervisor for 5 to 7 days before being passed to their supervisor. It is therefore recommended that you do this at a time when your supervisor is available
to approve it.
In the event you have no supervisor identified in ESR, the request will be sent to L&OD administrators and will usually be approved within 24 hours.
Approval is usually within 24 hours (excluding weekends) and you will need to check back on this screen to confirm approval. Once you have been approved, run the PC Checker (See section Before you Begin). You can then access the e-learning from a non trust computer at the following address.
