Register and Enroll in a Course

You must complete an easy, one-time registration and enrollment.

Before you start, you will need a:

  • Course ID from your instructor
  • Student access code
    or
  • Valid credit card (PayPal accounts supported after July 1, 2008)
  • Valid e-mail address that you check on a regular basis

To register and enroll in your instructor's CourseCompass course:

  1. Return to the CourseCompass home page, and click Register in the Students area.
  2. On the Before you Start… page, click Next.
  3. Follow the instructions to register and enroll.

You will be asked to:

  • Enter your instructor's course ID
  • Provide your access code or payment information
  • Create a login name and password
  • Provide contact information


After you register and enroll, you are ready to log in to your instructor's CourseCompass course.

Enroll in Another Course

Enrolling in another CourseCompass course is similar to enrolling in your first course, but is faster because your existing student account information is entered automatically. Follow the previous enrollment steps, but under "Do you have a Pearson Education account?" click Yes and enter your login information.

To enroll in another CourseCompass course based on the same textbook:

  1. Go to your Pearson Account Summary and log in.
  2. Under your list of CourseCompass products, click Enroll in Another Course.
  3. Enter the course ID and follow the on-screen instructions to complete enrollment.

You do not need a new student access code or payment method to enroll in a course based on the same textbook as your current course. In any of the following situations, you need only a new course ID from your instructor:

  • You are switching to a different section of your course.
  • You are retaking the same course.
  • You are enrolling in the next semester of a multisemester course.

Access Your Course

To log in and access your course:

  1. Go to www.coursecompass.com and click the Log In button in the Students area.
  2. Enter the login name and password you created during registration.
  3. From the My CourseCompass page, click a course name to begin your work for that course.
