How does the upload process work?
First, you must have a SPARK course, and be signed up for the upload process. You then calculate students’ final grades using the SPARK Grade Book or upload them into the Grade Book from MS Excel, Access, or any other grade management tool. Grades will be transferred from the SPARK Grade Book into SPIRE every night starting the first day of final exams until the night before grades are due at the registrar. All you have to do then is review and approve the grades in SPIRE to complete the process. To get started, see our SPARK to SPIRE Grade Upload Overview, then follow our Grade Upload Instructions.
