Profiles and Accounts
How do I get a login for CARE Academy?
Access to CARE Academy is available for all of CARE but granted by CARE USA. If you are a part of CARE USA, this is automatically created. However, this account is not part of Single Sign-On (SSO) or Okta. Your User ID is your current CARE email address, but your password may not be the same as your current password (due to the 90-day password reset). If you have not received a “Welcome to CARE Academy,” email academy@care.org.
If you are a non-CARE USA colleague, click here to register for access.

Courses
How do I enroll in a course?
From the home page click Courses, you will then see the course catalog. Once you are logged in, you will then see a link to browse or search for a course. Click on the course you would like to register for it will show an Enroll button that you can use to register for the course. You can see the courses you are currently enrolled in by clicking View My Learning under Quick Links.
From the home page, you can also click My Learning to go straight to browsing.
How long do the courses take?
This information is available for some courses but not all. When you click on the course, if the information is available, it will be shown on the enrollment page. Times vary from course to course, but all are flexible in that you can return to where you last left off and move at your own personal pace. Some courses provided will insist that you move at a certain pace, but all this information will be given to you when you open the course details.
Can I resume a course where I left off?
Many courses offer the option to save your location within a course and return to it later. If you wish to resume a course later on, click the Bookmark icon within a course and your current location will be saved. The next time you log in and access that course, you will be returned to your bookmarked location.
