Students
Your user name and password are the same as that used in the LACCD Student Information System (SIS). That is, your user name is your LACCD student ID number, which begins with the numbers "88." The password is the same PIN used in SIS, which is your four digit month and date of birth (MMDD) unless it has been changed. For example if your birth date is March 1, your PIN/password is '0301' unless you, the student, have changed it in the SIS.
After logging in, scroll down to the area that says My Courses then click on the specific course name to access the course materials.
If you changed your password at any time in the Student Information System (SIS), you will need to use the PIN number that you changed it to. If you do not, you will not be able to login.
NOTE: It takes 24 hours from the time you officially add a class until you are able to access to your class online (longer on weekends).
