Manage Guest Access
Introduction
Faculty can enable Guest Access to allow people not enrolled in their course to access their Moodle site.
- By default, courses are built with guest access turned off.
- If you set guest access to Yes you can then attach a password. Only guests with the password will be allowed access.
- Note that guests will have access to resources, but not to activities, E-Reserves or Video Reserves.
Instructions
Instructions:
- Go to your course's Moodle site.
