Getting a Sakai Site Set Up

All credit sections have a Sakai site for Spring 2020. About 90% of these sites are active and in use. For the remaining 10%...

If an instructor cannot access their Sakai site, it is likely because they have not completed the required Intro to Sakai online workshop.
These instructors should visit training.durhamtech.edu and register for BOTH Intro to Sakai and Intermediate Sakai.
Info on how to start the online trainining will be emailed to them within 24-48 hours.
Upon completion of Intro to Sakai, they will get access to their Sakai sites.

For non-credit classes, to get a Sakai site set up requires two things (in any order; both can get started concurrently):

The instructor’s supervisor or program specialist must submit a form to get a Sakai site created for a non-credit class: Sakai Site Request for Non-Credit Courses
- The Sakai site should be created within 24-48 hours upon submission of the form.
- The instructor will get access to the Sakai site when they complete Intro to Sakai.
The instructor must register for and complete the Intro to Sakai online workshop. They should visit training.durhamtech.edu and register for BOTH Intro to Sakai and Intermediate Sakai. Info on how to start the online training will be emailed to them within 24-48 hours.
