Quick Guide for Faculty

In order to get started with Avenue to Learn, you will need to complete the following steps:

1. Activate your MacID and enable your macid services

Macid's are created and maintained by University Technology Services. To enable your macid services, go here: http://www.mcmaster.ca/uts/students/gettingstarted/activateMACID.html If you do not have a MacID, please contact UTS at uts@mcmaster.ca or by phone at 905-525-9140 x24357. Typically new accounts come over from UTS to Avenue to Learn within 24-48 business hours. If you have access to your McMaster e-mail or other McMaster services that use your MacID to login, but not Avenue to Learn, try logging in to Avenue to Learn and that should begin the self registration process to enable your account in Avenue to Learn (accounts get automatically processed nightly). If you get stuck, contact us directly at: Avenue support (available from Monday to Friday, 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM) at (905) 525-9140 ext. 22911 or email: support.avenue@cll.mcmaster.ca.
