Creating CCLE (Moodle) logins for users without a UCLA Common Login ID
A UCLA account must be created for those users who need access to a private Moodle site and don’t have a UCLA Common Logon ID. (Cf. How do I know if I have a UCLA Common Logon ID?)
The first step in creating a special case account is to sign up for a UCLA Logon ID
Steps to create a UCLA Logon ID:
- Point your browser to http://ccle.ucla.edu.
- Choose logon in the far upper-right of the screen.
- Click the UCLA logon button
- A new window appears with three boxes on the right titled: Sign In, Useful Links and Help for…
- In the Useful Links box, select Sign up for a UCLA Logon ID
- Once the user has the logon, the user needs to log into ccle.ucla.edu once as this will make an entry into the Assign Roles, “Potential users”, list
- Then, someone with rights can follow the steps in the link below
- To also add this new account to an existing Moodle site, see In Moodle how do I add participants to a site?
While staff, faculty and students all have a UCLA Login ID and can log into the CCLE Moodle site easily, and in most cases their Registrar enrollment data will get them into the class sites they need, there are many cases where non-UCLA people legitimately need access, such as visiting speakers to a class, Senior Scholars, and outside collaborators for collaboration sites.
Adding Senior Scholars to Moodle:
- Follow Steps 1-6 above
- the person then emails that Login ID to the contact person on the Senior Scholars staff.
- that contact person is responsible for confirming that this is indeed the person who should be given access, and then emails cclehelp@ucla.edu requesting that Login ID be given access (and what kind of access) to the specific class or collaboration site needed.
- CCLEHELP will then email both of them when access has been granted.
Feel free to update this for clarity or to give more examples. It was taken from the procedure we worked out for the Senior Scholars Program.
