Modern States Question - collegechick - 01-29-2018

I signed up for an account at Modern States and added the course, American Government.  I've watched the intro video to the course, however I cannot see a link to begin the actual course.  Do I need to request a voucher to start?  What am I doing wrong?  I've e-mailed them, but haven't heard back.  

Also, If I'm understanding correctly, I can receive multiple CLEP vouchers for different classes?

Thank you for your help.

It's a little weird, but try https://courses.modernstates.org

I've personally received 4 vouchers.

Clicked that link and it led me back to the log-in screen.  This is all I'm getting:

I've also tried two different browsers to no avail.  I will click on the course to start, but it just keeps sending me back to the intro video.  Wonder what I'm doing wrong?

Congrats on 4 vouchers!!  Excited to get these credits done, if I can ever get it started!

I was able to get into my classes with the link https://courses.modernstates.org/dashboard. Last week, however, you needed to change your password in order to get into the site. instructions here: https://modernstates.org/single-sign-on/how-to-setup-your-sso-account/?utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Action+Required+Reset+your+Modern+States+password+-+B+117&utm_content=Action+Required+Reset+your+Modern+States+password+-+B+117+CID_9aaf957aa40cba74a0fa6e70c8ee6d2b&utm_source=ModernStates_CampaignMonitor&utm_term=view+by+clicking+here

Hi Jenny,

Thank you for the tips and update.  I've reset my password, logged in, see my dashboard, but I still don't see where I can start the class.  It shows I'm registered to take the class, but loops me back to the intro Youtube video for the class, without any other links or options.  Must be their technical issues.  Hopefully, they'll get it fixed soon.

When you click on American Government, do you see a "Course" link above the video?


RE: Modern States Question - collegechick - 01-30-2018

Thank you all for your attempts to help. Turns out there was a massive IT glitch yesterday. Now I can see/start the course. Thanks again for your help.
