Use the Registration Portal

Create a registration portal for external candidates to sign up for CBT exams.

Allow external candidates to register for exams through a public registration link before exam day.

Steps

  1. Go to Assessment / CBT from the sidebar.
  2. Click Create Registration.
  3. Fill in the form:
    • Select Exam — choose which exam candidates are registering for
    • Registration Deadline — last date candidates can register (after this, the link stops working)
    • Registration URL Slug — the custom URL path (e.g., /r/entrance-exam-2026). This creates a shareable link like yourschool.cloudsentrics.org/r/entrance-exam-2026
    • Max Candidates — maximum number of registrations allowed (set to 0 for unlimited)
  4. Click Create Registration.
  5. Copy the generated registration link.
  6. Share the link with candidates (via website, WhatsApp, social media, or email).

What Candidates See

When candidates open the link, they see a registration form where they enter:

  • Full name
  • Email address
  • Phone number
  • Any other required details

After submitting, they receive a unique Candidate Number (format: EXT/PREFIX/YEAR/SEQ). They use this number to access the exam on test day.

Managing Registrations

  • View all registered candidates from the CBT section
  • See candidate numbers, names, and registration dates
  • Registration automatically closes after the deadline
  • If max candidates is reached, new registrations are blocked

Tips

  • Set a realistic capacity to manage exam logistics
  • Share the link early to give candidates time to register
  • The URL slug should be short and descriptive (no spaces, use hyphens)
  • Candidate numbers are generated automatically and cannot be duplicated
  • Students must enter their Candidate Number to start the exam on test day
