The author's first sign-in to the platform

When a platform admin adds you as an author to a course, you get an email. On the platform, an author is shown as a trainer, so the email says you were added as a trainer in the course.

Steps for the author to sign in​

  1. Open the email and click this link. The link signs you in to the platform right away and opens the platform home page.
