Student Information

The first time your students click the Pearson link in your course, they will need to create a Pearson MyLab & Mastering course account. If they already have an account, they will be prompted to enter their username and password.

When prompted for access, students will click the Access Code button if they purchased a package from the bookstore or Use a Credit Card or Paypal to purchase access.

Instructors do not need to send an email invitation to their students since students can activate their accounts and enter via the Carmen course.

See Pearson's Student Support for details.
