I created an exam, but students can't see it in their calendar. Why?

Once an exam is created, its schedule must be published before it appears in the calendar or before an SMS can be sent about it.

How to publish the exam schedule

1. Go to the Examination module and select Exam Management.
2. Select the course and batch.
3. Select the exam you created.
4. Find the Publish Exam Schedule link to the right of the exam name.

5. Click the link to publish the schedule.
6. A confirmation message appears.

Once the schedule is published, students in the batch can log in and see the exam details in their calendar.
