We use WISEflow to manage exams.

In WISEflow you can:
- see exam dates for individual courses
- download student assignments
- see times for oral exams (the system generates exam times - you are not allowed to create your own sequential list)
- submit the grade after completing the exam
- Flowcombine: for 2-part exams, where there is both a written submission and an oral defense, Flowcombine is used - the grade must be given at the oral defense
If there is a need for minor adjustments to the sequential list in WISEflow - you are welcome to contact [email protected].

A Student handbook (in Greenlandic and Danish) has been prepared, where you can read more about:
- matters relating to exams

On WISEflow, a percentage is given in relation to "text similarity" - which indicates matching text / high similarity in content.
If you notice a high probability of plagiarism in an assignment, you must report it to the head of department, who will contact Student services.

As you are probably aware, the Government of Greenland has recently introduced the new travel settlement system ACUBIZ, which naturally brings with it certain challenges in the start-up phase.
We are fully aware of these challenges and are ready to support where we can. Our main focus is to help you with the user creation process, which takes place before the actual travel settlement begins.
Once you are set up as a user and ready to use ACUBIZ, you can get specific assistance from the Government of Greenland's travel department at [email protected]. They have the expertise to help you with the actual travel settlement in the ACUBIZ system - we are not the experts.
We are here to ease the transition to this new system and ensure you get the help you need. Should you have any questions or need further guidance, please feel free to contact us at [email protected].
