Enroll in your OLI Torus Course and sign in after enrollment
Students reach their course one of two ways. This article is for students with an enrollment URL or invitation link provided by their instructor or school to a Direct Delivery course section. Follow this link and create an account or sign in to an existing account to enroll in the course materials.
If you do not have an invitation link, you may have single sign-on (SSO) from your school website, like Canvas, Blackboard, or Brightspace. A single sign-on link never asks you to sign in -- it just takes you directly to the course. If your instructor uses a SSO link, that's all you need! Make sure to be signed in to your school's system before following the link to OLI Torus.Direct Delivery students
