How Do I Login to Moodle?
Moodle login information is the same as your login credentials for my.alliant.edu.
Your login is your first name initial + last name, for example 'John Smith' = 'jsmith' , but be careful, some usernames come with hyphens or numbers!!! ('jsmith-doe' or 'jsmith2')
Your password is the same as the one you use to access Alliant email, myAlliant portal and Alliant campus computers. In other words, you do not need to have three different passwords to login to each of the sites.
If you experience system problems, please contact the Alliant Helpdesk at [email protected] or 858-635-4357 and select option 1.
