Course - Enrol into a Course

Find courses from our learning suite

After you have logged into healthLearn click on the Find Courses link to see all the available courses, which are arraged in directories.

Select the course that you wish to enrol into.

There are usually four settings.

  1. Self enrolment. This is the most common method. The course may let you self enrol and all you need to do is click on the course name to enter the course and enrol. PLEASE NOTE – once you have clicked on the course name you will also be prompted to confirm your enrolment. If you cannot see the confirmation button – you may need to scroll down the page slightly. This is to ensure that people do not accidently enrol in courses that they do not intend to complete.
  2. You need a course enrolment key. If you have not been issued an enrolment key code - click on the course tutors name to contact them and request a key code.
  3. No enrolment key, and cannot self enrol. These courses require manual enrolment. Click on the course tutors name to contact them and request to be enrolled into the course.
  4. Guest Access. This is a free access open to all people option. There may be some limits to what you can do within the course however.

If you enrol into a course, it is expected that you will complete the course requirements. If you enrol and decide to not complete the course, you are able to un-enrol from the course yourself.

Logging in difficulties

Firstly, to access healthLearn you need a healthLearn Account.

Click the button on the front page to create your own account.

You must have an Employee number and Organisational work email address, as personal email addresses will not be accepted. Staff from most Canterbury and West Coast Organisations can create their own account.

If you work for one of Canterbury Partnership Group Organisations who do not have an organisational email address, you need to contact your own Educator directly. They will collate the required information and then arrange to have your account created. You will recieve email notification from them when your account has been created. 

 Check to make sure that you are using your healthLearn account to sign in and not your organisational login information.

With most organisations, healthLearn is a totally seperate system, and has a seperate username and password. If you change your password in your organisational computer network, it will not change or update your healthLearn account

 Check your keyboard

Make sure you do not have your Caps Lock turned on

Mobile Devices

healthLearn uses a responsive theme - similar to websites that detect what sort of device you are using. If you are using mobile devices, such as iPads, iPhones, tablets and android phones, the healthLearn site will look slightly different - although the majority of the functions and options should work.

Please be aware, for the best results, please ensure you are using a desktop or laptop computer, as there is some content that will be difficult to see on small devices.

Pop-ups - What are they?

 To reduce annoying advertising, most computer browsers have pop-up windows disabled as a default setting. In some courses there are scenarios and quizes which open in a new window. To make sure your computer lets you do this you need to enable "Pop-ups".

eg. If you go into one of the scenarios, it will open in a new window. If your pop-ups are enabled the scenario will start. This means your computer is set to allow "Pop-ups" already so you are ok to begin working through the scenario.

If the scenario does not start...... don't worry!

You should see something similar to the picture below.

If you see this yellow bar you need to enable pop-ups

















The yellow bar is asking if you want to enable "pop-ups". If you click on the yellow bar you will be given a couple of options.

 

Turn pop-ups on or off
  1. On your computer, open Chrome.
  2. At the top right, click More .
  3. Click Settings.
  4. At the bottom, click Show advanced settings.
  5. Under "Privacy," click Content settings.
  6. Under "Pop-ups," select an option: Allow this site to show pop-ups.

 

As the healthLearn site is spam free - we recommend that you choose "Always Allow Pop-ups from This Site..."

The scenario/screen will reload and then you will be able to start the scenario.

(sneaky hint) If you get really stuck - try holding the <ctrl> key down when you click on the Enter/Start button

 

For Users of Google Chrome

Chrome features a pop-up blocker that can prevent new windows from opening. When it does, you'll briefly see the message "Pop-up blocked" in the address bar.

You can allow pop-ups from a site that you're visiting by clicking the blocked pop-up icon, selecting "Always allow pop-ups from [address of site]", and clicking Done.
