Schools submit CAS samples from their CAS roster in IB Moderators Access. Moderators sign in and open the Schools tab to see the schools assigned to them, then select a school and a student to review their CAS work. Moderator access is granted by the IB only, not by ManageBac+ Support.
For schools submitting CAS samples for moderation, and for IB moderators and Regional Staff managers who review them.
Access to IB Moderators must be granted directly by the IB. You cannot create your own account or request access from ManageBac+ Support.

Find a school (moderators and Regional Staff managers)
When you sign in as a moderator, the Schools tab lists the schools assigned to you. You cannot see schools you are not assigned to.
The Schools tab shows the schools in your working region that have submitted CAS samples. Search by school name, or filter by Session, Region and Country.
Regional Staff managers can assign moderators to individual schools. Moderators can only view the schools assigned to them.
Review CAS work
School summary
When you select a school, the default view shows, for each student:
- the number of outcomes they are targeting across their activities
- the count of evidence they have submitted
- the number of meetings held to date
An exemplar label appears next to the student the school identified, if any. On the right you can see an overview of the school and when the submission was received.
Use the dropdown menu to change the view. You can see progress by experience type, and planned and completed hours if the school has enabled hours.

Review by student
-
Select a student to open a summary of their CAS work. This is the student's CAS worksheet. It shows each experience, planned and addressed outcomes, hours if enabled and a timeline of experiences. CAS documents and interviews are further down the page.
Check the Outcomes chart. Orange bars count the experiences targeting each learning outcome. Green bars count the experiences completed with evidence. Over the programme, the green bars gradually catch up with the orange ones.
-
Use the filters on the right to show evidence for a specific experience or learning outcome.
Select an experience to see its full details, including dates, supervisor information and reviews, notes and interviews.
-
Use the extra tabs to view CAS questions and Reflections & Evidence. To move to another experience, use the dropdown at the bottom right.
For IBA schools, the school stars up to 10 reflection samples and pieces of evidence that best reflect each student's CAS portfolio.
Record notes for the school
