City recognises that external contributors, including Alumni and service users, contribute to students' learning. If you require external users to contribute to a City Blog the external users will need to agree to the terms and conditions of the External User Agreement CampusPress (see below) and the Conditions of Use Policy (the PDF needs to be downloaded and provided to externals as it is available on the Staff Hub). Local accounts can then be set up for external users. You can request local accounts for the external users via ServiceNow. Provide the external user's name, email, the blog role required and the blog URL and the local accounts will be created and assigned to your blog.
Please note that there is a separate process for external examiner access. The External Examiner Account Request Form needs to be completed to provide External Examiners access to City Blogs
