I hope the group can help me out with a question? Did enrollment in your distance learning program require that you provide a photo ID? Thanks in advance for any comments.
In my case enrollment did not require a photo ID as far as I remember, though I don’t recall my previous B&M school asking for one either. The various proctored exams I’ve taken have all required a photo ID though.
That's an interesting question. Neither Charter Oak nor GW required one from me. Maybe they should have? -=Steve=-
EBS did, along with a letter from someone claiming to know me. (not sure how useful that was however, since that could have been forged easily.)
University of London - photo ID required for exams only. University of Northumbria - Copy of passport size photo required with registration, but not photo ID as such. They did use my photo to send me a library card, which is nice (if not particularly useful).
Coastal Carolina University now puts student ID photos on the class roster for all classes. Seems there may have been a problem with ringers in the recent past. I've never had to present an ID of any sort to register for a DL class (and I've taken more than a few) but always have 2 photo IDs when going to take an exam. I took an ECE and they required photo ID and then took a picture of me too. I kept expecting them to pull out the portable fingerprinting kit any time.
EBS also required a copy of a photo ID along with two passport-style photographs. They used the ID and the photographs at the exam site to confirm who I was. Later on, they scanned the photographs, so I no longer had to provide a set for each exam.
