How to access my courses

There are several ways to access your course via the dashboard after you logged in.

Important! If your school is taking auto-attendance which requires you to go to each of your courses, this is how you do it...

1- Click on the course image on the dashboard


2- Click on the course name in the left navigation drawer. The navigation drawer will always be on the left and you can access the other courses without going back to your dashboard.
