Learn@UW has undergone updates to its login mechanism. The login changes bring Learn@UW into the same NetID model as WiscMail, My UW, My WebSpace and many other campus services. In the coming days, Learn@UW will support direct access to courses from My UW without the need to re-authenticate.

A variety of people have been given Learn@UW Visitor accounts in cases where they are not eligible for UW NetID's. The following people should use the "Visitor account" option:

  • Visiting instructors
  • Non-credit outreach students
  • Non-UW members of the community
  • "Pseudo-student" accounts (for instructor testing purposes)
  • Generic department accounts

For more information, please see:


Your feedback about these changes are welcomed. Please email the Learn@UW-Madison team at madison-learnuw@lists.wisc.edu
