All incoming students are required to complete courses in Vector LMS.
- Sexual Assault Prevention (Incoming Undergraduate and Graduate Students)
- AlcoholEDU (Incoming Undergraduate Students)
- Mental Wellbeing (Incoming Undergraduate Students)
Near the start of the semester a reminder email will be sent with instructions and a listing of your assigned courses. Reminders are sent every two weeks. If a reminder is not in your inbox, it may be in the junk/clutter/spam folders. The email subject line will be “You've been assigned required training for students” from University of California - Merced. Please do not reply to this email as the inbox is unmonitored. If you allow the email to display its images it will look something like this:
You can access your account at https://ucmerced-ca.vectorlmsedu.com/ by signing in with your UC Merced credentials on the UC Merced single-sign-on screen you are used to seeing.
If you have been assigned training, after logging in, the My Assignments page will show open assignments, due dates, and a link to the training. If you have not been assigned training you may still have the option to complete training by clicking "Extra Training" in the left pane.
Once you launch the course you must accept the disclaimers.
Then you will be able to access the course.
