NOTE: While you are a student at the University of Portsmouth, Google will not use your personal information to provide customised advertising. The advantage of Google applications for Higher Education is that you will not receive adverts whilst you are a registered student here.

Google and Victory

Google applications are designed to be collaborative and enable you to work with your classmates on group projects. Group project work that needs to be assessed and marked will need to take place where your tutors can view it within the Virtual Learning Environment, Victory, and not within Google. If you have any questions please contact your academic department or tutor.

You may also like to forward your Victory email to your new Google account. For instructions visit www.port.ac.uk/forwardingemail.
