Logging into the LMS
When your qualification begins, you will receive an email confirming that you have been added to the LMS. This email will guide you through setting up your login details.
Please note that your LMS login details may be different from your MyCG login.
Finding your way around the LMS
Play the video to understand how to navigate our Learning Management System.
Welcome to the Chartered Governance Institute UK and Ireland's online learning platform. This short guide will show you where to start, how to find your Sector Qualification learning, and where to go for support.
Go to learning.cgi.org.uk. Enter your username and password, then select Sign in. If you need help signing in, use the Trouble signing in link, or contact the learning team.
After signing in, you will arrive at My Dashboard. This is your main starting point for your Sector Qualification.
Your qualification course appears in the centre of the page. In this example, we are using the Certificate in Academy Governance. Select the course card to continue your learning.
Your dashboard also brings together important certificate resources, such as your study texts, Programme Guide, syllabus and Resources Hub. You can also find community and support options here, together with information about upcoming webinars where these are available.
Inside your course, begin with Start Here and the induction information. Your learning is then organised into sections. Depending on your qualification, these may include module content, webinars, multiple-choice questions, case studies and other learning activities.
Some course pages also provide quick links to study material and recordings, discussions with tutors and students, learner support and a route back to your dashboard. The exact links and activities may vary by qualification.
Workspaces provide another area for shared resources and discussion. Select Workspaces from the navigation at the top of the screen.
Use My Workspaces for spaces that are already available to you, or, use Find workspaces where your course directs you to locate a public Workspace.
Find the Workspace associated with your qualification. If a Join option is shown, and your course asks you to use that Workspace, select Join. Inside a Workspace, use the available areas to find discussions and shared resources in the library.*
Whenever you want to return to your starting point, select My Dashboard from the navigation at the top of the page.
Your account menu contains Profile and Preferences, where you can review and update the settings available to you.
If you need help, use the Help Centre or Contact Support at the bottom of the page. If you cannot see a course or Workspace that you expect to have, email learning@cgi.org.uk.
You are now ready to begin. Start from My Dashboard, open your qualification course, and use Workspaces and support whenever you need them.
