How do I obtain the activation code for a specific course?
Some courses require an activation code in order to join. This means the course is private.
If there's a specific course you want to join, you can ask a course admin or facilitator if they are willing to give you the activation code. To do this:
Step 1
Go to the landing page of the course you wish to join
Step 2
Scroll to the "Who is supporting you" section at the bottom. The people listed here are the admins and facilitators that run this course. Click on one of them to be redirected to their OpenLearning profile
Step 3
On their profile click the "send a message" button
Step 4
Send them a politely worded message asking for the activation code.
REMEMBER: Even if you ask nicely, they are allowed to turn down your request. If this is the case, please be courteous and respect their decision.
