Important Information for QMUL and Imperial LISS DTP funded students:
If you are a student registered at QMUL or Imperial and have already supplied your QMUL or Imperial ACCESS Forms to us, you should have received your K number and KCL email address, and therefore have access to SkillsForge.
If you haven’t returned the completed KCL ACCESS Forms 23-24 to us, please do as soon as you can. We will then liaise with King’s Student Registry to set up your record (including K number and KCL email address), and thus your access to SkillsForge.
In the meantime, we recommend you email your course choices to the LISS DTP Team directly liss-dtp [at] kcl [dot] ac [dot] uk, so that we can share course information and meeting links in time. We can register you manually onto the courses of your choice on SkillsForge at a later stage, when your King’s visiting research student account is set up.
