To report the details of the registration problems to UBC Extended Learning, please use this web form. We appreciate your time in letting us know.
If you can't register despite having the right course prerequisites, please refer to these instructions:
- Ensure your cookies are enabled and you're not browsing in Private/Incognito mode.
- Ensure the system is recognizing your login.
For more details, consult the answers below. If you continue to experience registration problems, please contact us via phone, email, or web form.
This is how Private/Incognito modes appear in browsers:
Mozilla Firefox: Incognito mask appears
Internet Explorer: InPrivate icon appears
Google Chrome: Mask icon appears and browser header turns dark colour
Safari: Private icon appears or the website address field turns dark grey (depending on device and browser version)
Microsoft Edge: InPrivate icon appears
Typically, closing the browser and opening a new one will create a new window without the Private/Incognito mode. However, on some devices such as iPhones, there is an extra button (sometimes referred to as PRIVATE or a similar label) that you'll need to click to off before opening the new window. For more information, consult the instructions for your specific browser/device, or contact your device carrier/manufacturer.
