Instructor approval is free, and a person reviews each request, usually within one business day. It opens the Instructor's Manual, the instructor resource files, and every chapter of the book for you to read.
Request it
Open the form
Use request instructor approval on your account page, or go to the request form.
Fill it in
School or college, Course name, Course type and roughly how many students you expect. Anything else is optional.
Choose Submit request
A receipt email arrives right away, and a second email when you're approved.
To speed things up, confirm a school email address on the form. It's optional. Do it last, right before you submit, because the confirmation expires after a couple of hours.
If you hear nothing
Your account page shows where your request stands. Filing twice won't speed it up. If a business day has passed with no email, check your spam folder, then contact us with the address you signed up with.
Questions we get about this
- Does it cost anything?
- No. Approval, the Instructor's Manual, the teaching files and group tools are all free for instructors.
- Do I need a .edu email address?
- No. A school address can speed things up, but plenty of instructors are approved without one.
- Can I try it before I ask?
- Yes. A demo class needs no approval. See Try the demo classroom.
