The following are the different types of sites that are hosted on the shared CCLE/Moodle server, with links to instructions about how to request them.

1. Course site. An official course website for any UCLA course with an SRS (student records system) number (a 9-digit unique ID assigned by the registrar). Normally, this site is the one to which the Registrar’s Schedule of Classes and MyUCLA “Course webpage” links go. Note that CCLE hosts only those course sites for departments or units that have opted into the CCLE and have decided to run course websites here. For instructions on how to request a course site, consult: Requesting a course site on Moodle
2. Preview site. This is a special category of test sites for instructors preparing to use (migrate to) CCLE/Moodle for instruction. Preview sites are available only to instructors of record, and are meant to serve as a transitional stage for those instructors about to start using CCLE/Moodle, but not yet ready to decide to use it as their live course site. Preview sites have all the features of regular live course sites, EXCEPT that there are no students enrolled in the sites. A preview site stays closed to students until someone requests that it be made live, in which case students are enrolled to it. Preview sites are built on an SRS number using the CCLE Course Requestor. See Requesting a course site on Moodle
3. Collaboration site. A site for online collaboration of any kind — projects, committees, task forces, interest groups, etc. — involving at least two UCLA faculty, staff or student participants. Collaboration sites are available to anyone with UCLA affiliation to a department or unit that has opted into the CCLE. For instructions on how to request a collaboration site, consult: Requesting a collaboration site on Moodle
4. Test site. A site for a UCLA individual or group to test out the features of a CCLE/Moodle. May be used temporarily while someone is trying CCLE/Moodle for the first time, or may be maintained ongoingly for use in regular training sessions and for other recurring testing needs. For instructions on how to request a test site, consult: Requesting a test site on Moodle
5. Archive site. On the shared CCLE Server, policy is that two weeks into the next quarter, class sites will no longer allow student access, and at some point thereafter they’ll be moved to the archive server where they will still be available to instructors. Links will be provided from the old site to the archive site.
