Access to LearnJCU
Check out the step-by-step procedure below to resolve your access problems
Access to subject sites
LearnJCU consists of self-contained sites. There are also features that let you work across sites. To access any LearnJCU site you need to be enrolled. LearnJCU has two main types of sites.
Subjects
Academic subject sites are the formal sites associated with each JCU subject offering and student enrolment. Staff enrolment is managed by College Academic Services. They are released by Learning Environments in late September in preparation for the following year and are pre-populated with the JCU LearnJCU Subject Template.
Organisations
Organisations give you a space to work with students and other staff outside subjects. Organisations can be associated with subjects, courses, or activities (e.g. placement and student exchange programs). They can also be staff-only sites for training and programs. .
Other
Sandpit Sites: For testing and experimenting with the tools
Essentials Sites: For internal staff training modules, such as Subject Coordinator Essentials, JCU Respect, Academic Integrity etc.
Development and Master Sites: Subject-specific options for development and content management. You can if you think they would be suitable for a project.
Basic LearnJCU structure
In the main menu, you will find:
- : Helpful links, news, and support resources (see table below).
- : This will appear on the menu as your name. Add a photo, pronouns, and how to pronounce your name. Staff and students in your subjects can see this information when they see your name in LearnJCU.
- : A summary of activities across your subjects and organisations.
- : Access to past, present, and future subjects you’re enrolled in.
- : Access to organisations. You will only have this option if you are enrolled in an organisation.
- : View course events and assessment due dates across your subjects and organisations.
- : View and send messages (similar to email) across your subjects and organisations.
- : See what needs grading across all your courses.
- : Access global functions that are outside of your courses such as portfolios or the Content Collection.
Site menu
When you are on a Subject Site you will see a top bar menu for assessing key site features, such as Content, Calendar, Announcements, Discussions, Grade Centre, Messages, Analytics, and Groups.

Dig into LearnJCU with a new Sandpit Site!
Our Sandpit Essentials, also known as practice subject sites, now feature a module to guide you through Learnºì¶¹ÊÓƵ and its tools. The module is designed to provide hands-on experience, complete with example content, including every question type and a question bank for testing and experimentation.
While the module is designed with new users in mind, it also offers value to current users who are interested in discovering the latest features. If you already have a sandpit in place and wish to have the module added, we're more than happy to assist you with that!
All LearnJCU subject sites are pre-populated with the Institutional LearnJCU Subject Site Template.
The template includes four key folders that aim to establish consistency across the student navigation (see elements outlined in the and the LearnJCU Content Management Procedure).
Read Subject Site Setup.
The 'Welcome' page in LearnJCU has helpful links and support resources that you can easily access when you need them.
Keep an eye out for upcoming workshops.
