Professional Development Courses
External Identities:
Students login using external identities (Google, LinkedIn and Microsoft) to most of the Professional Development courses. If you’re having trouble logging in, we suggest you:
Ensure you’re using the same internet browser you typically use.
Can’t login to your external account? Clear your cookies, login, then try accessing your Canvas course.
External Identities are available at this web page: https://elearning.ufl.edu/. You will be using the blue “External ID” button to enter your course.
If you can’t log into your Google, LinkedIn or Microsoft account, you’ll need to go through that platform first to reset your password.
