How do I enroll in or join my course?

Your instructor will tell you how to access your course. You may join through your school’s LMS, a course link or a course key. If you’re unsure which method to use, check with your instructor.

How do I redeem an access code, or what if my code isn't working?

Sign in to your Cengage account and select Enter Access Code or Course Key, then enter your access code and select Register. If your code is damaged, missing or still doesn't work, contact Cengage Support.

Why can't I access my course?

How you access your course depends on how your instructor set it up. Start from your LMS, course link or course key. If you've purchased access but still can't open the course, Cengage Help can help you troubleshoot your access.
