How it works

Two clear paths: educators start on this site to publish a program and get ready to teach; learners follow a teacher's link, then use the portal for sessions, assignments, and progress.

  1. Person planning a program on a laptop1Educator

    Educators: register your program

    Use Create your program on this site (`/auth/signup`). Set your program name and slug, then you’ll be ready to publish your course, add your students, and run weekly sessions in the portal.

  2. Organizing teaching materials2Educator

    Educators: quick links on this site

    After Sign in here, open Courses (`/courses`) for fast links into your program. You’ll manage content, homework, and learners from the portal.

  3. Student learning online3Learner

    Learners: join, then use the portal

    Open the join link your teacher shares (`/c/<program>/join`) and follow the steps. Once you’re in, you’ll see your cohort schedule, materials, and homework in one place.

Built for evening cohorts

876 Evening Class is designed for people building while working — a clear weekly rhythm, a cohort community, and practical homework that moves projects forward. Educators publish their program and manage their students; learners join with a link and show up ready to work.

The live classroom runs inside the learning portal so sessions, materials, submissions, and announcements stay in one place.

  • 01Program spaces — each creator runs their own program with their own learners, courses, and weekly schedule.
  • 02Teaching toolkit — share materials, post homework, collect submissions, and keep the cohort moving week to week.
  • 03Two clear paths — educators start on this site to create a program, then teach in the portal; learners use a join link and spend their time in the portal.

    Homework & accountability

    Post weekly homework, collect submissions, and keep momentum with announcements and clear “what’s next” checklists.

Keep the page clean and open guides only when you need them.

  • Getting started

    For educators: create your program

    This page is for teachers and program leads. You register here first so we can provision your space; students follow a different path (see Guides). The live classroom is always the portal.

    1. Start on this site

      Open Sign up and enter your email, a secure password, your name, and a short slug for your program (this becomes your program link). We set up your program space and a starter course behind the scenes.

    2. Open the learning portal

      Visit portal.876eveningclass.com and log in. That is where you run sessions, share content, post homework, and manage your learners.

    3. Course list on this site (optional shortcut)

      Use Sign in here and open Courses for deep links into classes on the portal. Day-to-day teaching still happens on the portal.

  • For students

    How learners join and start

    876 Evening Class is built for working schedules. Your teacher runs the cohort in the portal; you’ll use a join link to get into the right program, then follow the weekly rhythm: session → homework → feedback.

    1. Get your access details

      Your teacher will either enrol you directly in the portal or send an invite link like 876eveningclass.com/c/<program>/join. Use that link to create your login for the right program, then sign in on the portal to open My courses.

    2. Log in to the portal

      Go to portal.876eveningclass.com and sign in. The portal home (“My courses”) is at /my/.

    3. Open your course and follow the homepage

      Your course homepage is your checklist for the week. If you get stuck, message your teacher or ask them to confirm you’re enrolled in the right cohort.

    Portal sign inPortal register

    Prefer the invite link first — portal-only registration won't place you in your teacher's program until they enrol you.

    In the portal

    Create a course

    Courses are authored inside portal.876eveningclass.com. The steps below mirror Moodle's documented workflow (version 4.5 family).

    • Log in as a teacher or manager

      In the portal, open your profile menu and confirm you can access Site home or your company dashboard. IOMAD separates companies (tenants); your new signup is tied to your company manager role for your space.

    • Create a course

      Use Site administration or your company admin navigation to add a course. Moodle's official guide covers naming, categories, formats (topics, weekly, etc.), and visibility — see Adding a new course (opens in new tab).

    • Open the course and turn editing on

      Enter the course, then use Turn editing on to add sections and activities. Overview: Turn editing on (opens in new tab) and Editing a course (opens in new tab).

    • Set the course home page

      Arrange sections so the course homepage (opens in new tab) tells learners what to do first (welcome message, key resources, week or topic zero).

  • Course building

    Add information & activities

    With editing on, use Add an activity or resource in any section. Moodle splits content into activities and resources (opens in new tab) — resources are mainly content delivery; activities are things learners do (submit, discuss, attempt).

    All links below point to Moodle Docs 4.5 (opens in new tab) so your team can verify behaviour against the official manual.

  • Access control

    Add students to a course

    For v1 we recommend manual enrolment: you (teacher) add learners, then send them the portal link. It’s predictable, avoids “wrong people self-joining,” and matches school/cohort workflows.

    If you want a shareable onboarding experience, use an invite link instead: /c/<slug>/join. That link pins the student to the right company (tenant) and default course.

    Option A (recommended): manual enrolment

    1. 1. Open your course → Participants.
    2. 2. Click Enrol users.
    3. 3. Search by email/name, pick the role (Student), enrol.
    4. 4. Send students the portal login URL + course name.

    Official docs: Manual enrolment (opens in new tab) · Participants (opens in new tab)

    Option B: self enrolment (later)

    If you want “students join with a link,” enable self enrolment on the course and share an enrolment key. This is great for public programs but needs clear rules.

    Official docs: Self enrolment (opens in new tab) · Enrolment methods (opens in new tab)

    If you add paid access later, the platform app can automate enrolment via webhooks when billing is enabled. We’ll keep the UI workflow documented here even after automation exists.

    Students working and submitting assignments
    Think of enrolment as “who is allowed to see this course.” Start manual; enable self enrolment once your process is stable.
