1. Before you can take online curriculum courses at ACC, you must follow the admissions and testing process and register for courses.  To begin this process go to Applying and Testing at Alamance Community College
2. Once you’ve complete the admissions, testing, and registration process; you should set up your ACCess userID and login to your email account.  This is the email account that your instructor will use to communicate with you throughout your Moodle course. To complete this process:
   • Go to guardian.alamancecc.edu
   • Fill out the form and submit. Remember your ACCess userID and password.
   • Login to your ACCess Email through gmail.com and choose “sign in” (you may need to temporarily log out of any other Gmail accounts first.  Use your full school email address – fmlast789@access.alamancecc.edu –  and the password you set in Guardian.)
3. Next, log in to Moodle on the first day of your semester.  The online or hybrid courses for which you are registered will appear in Moodle so that you can get started.

Please Note: Usernames are constructed using the name that you used when you originally registered at Alamance Community College. This is necessary in an effort to preserve all historical and future transactions for a single individual. It is also necessary to remain with the original name submitted in an effort to avoid problems created by duplicate records (one student, two names, two records).
