Step 3: Get Started

Here are some helpful tips to set yourself up!


1 — Watch University of Massachusetts Global’s orientation

Sign into Brightspace and under “My Classes” complete the New Student Orientation courses. After completing the knowledge check you will earn a certificate of completion.
 

2 — Flag your first day

Mark the first day of classes on your calendar so you’re not caught off guard. You can find this date on University of Massachusetts Global’s academic calendar. If you’re in the University of Massachusetts Global MyPath program, you don’t have an official start date. However, you’ll still want to consider how you’d like to schedule your time to complete your units.

3 — Sign in to your classes

Make sure to sign in to your classes and get started right away. If you don’t sign in within the first two weeks, you’ll be automatically dropped.

5 — Meet your Guild Growth Coach

Once you start in your program you should receive an email introducing you to your Guild Growth Coach.
