Problems logging in? Try these tips:
- If there is a problem logging into Moodle, make sure you are not logged into Moodle with the ID of another educational institution. If you are, log out from there first, or use the browser's private mode with a different login. Clearing the browser cache can also help the situation.
- If you have enrolled for Jamk courses through Cross-Institutional Study Information Service (RIPA), your Jamk username will be activated at the beginning of that semester when the course will start (January 1st or August 1st). Only after this, go and get the Jamk username and set the password.
2. Log in to the learning environment
Jamk uses the web-based learning environment Moodle. Login to Moodle with your student email address ([email protected]) and the password you set in the Self service password reset. The course environment opens just before the commencement of the studies.
Log in to the Moodle environment. You will see the course in Moodle on the first day of the studies, at the latest. If there is a problem logging into Moodle, make sure you are not logged into Moodle with the ID of another educational institution. If you are, log out from there first, or use the browser's private mode with a different login. Clearing the browser cache can also help the situation.
