If you have a UCLA Logon ID (to look up/manage/sign up for your UCLA logon, go to https://logon.ucla.edu/) or a previously established account on the CCLE/Moodle system, you can enroll yourself in a CCLE/Moodle site if the owner of that site has set up the site to be enrollable without any “enrollment key”, or with an “enrollment key” and has given it to you.

See instructions on how to set up an enrollment key for a CCLE/Moodle site, here: http://kb.ucla.edu/articles/how-to-enable-access-to-your-cclemoodle-course

To self-enroll in a CCLE/Moodle site:

  1. Navigate to the CCLE/Moodle portal: http://ccle.ucla.edu
  2. Click the “login” link at the top right of the page. Log in with a UCLA Logon ID or with any pre-existing Special Case login.
  3. Once logged into the CCLE/Moodle system, navigate to the site to which you want to have access.
  4. Click the site title, and you’ll be taken to the PUBLIC display of the site.
  5. Click “Enroll me in this course” listed in the “Administration” block on the course page.
  6. If the site is enrollable without any key, you will be prompted to the following question. Please choose “Yes”.
    You are about to enroll yourself as a member of this course.
    Are you sure you wish to do this?
  7. If the site does require an enrollment key, type it in the field and click “Enroll me in this course”.
  8. You should now have the PRIVATE view of the site.

Your level of access, or role, will depend on the “Default role” setting set for the site. “Student” access is typical and allows you to interact with existing content (Forums, Wikis, etc.) but not to modify the site by adding new tools or files. If you need more permissions to modify the site, request that from the site owner or contact cclehelp@ucla.edu.
