Enrolling in a Moodle Course
Some Moodle courses require a course enrolment key.
Your instructor will normally provide the enrolment key through one of the communication methods used for your course.
If you are unable to enrol in a course:
- First, confirm that you are accessing the correct Moodle course.
- Verify that you are using the correct enrolment key provided by your instructor.
- If you can access your other Moodle courses successfully, contact your instructor to confirm the course and enrolment information.
- If your instructor is unable to determine why you cannot access the course, they can contact the Moodle Site Administrator for further assistance.
