Registration and Course Access Instructions

Elevate = Registration | Lesley Account = Course Access on Blackboard/myLesley

ELEVATE:

  • Elevate is an online registration system at Lesley University for continuing education services, such as the Trauma Certificate.

  • You should see your course/start date listed in the upper right hand corner of the “Create Account” sign-in page. If your district/site is sponsoring payment, it is reflected as a discount. If not, after entering your information, the system will prompt you for payment.

  • If you’re new to Elevate, you need to create a new account even if you’ve taken classes at Lesley before. If you have an existing Lesley account, use the same name for registration (including maiden names) to avoid duplicates in the system.

  • Your Elevate email address, username, and password are self-chosen. You may opt to utilize existing Lesley credentials or you may choose a new/unique username and password.

  • Please record your Elevate account credentials. You will need them to sign up for future courses offered through this platform.

BLACKBOARD/myLESLEY:

  • Once registered through Elevate, you will receive 1 to 2 emails at the address you provided:

    • Everyone receives an email from elevate@lesley.edu with your Elevate username and portal link.

    • If you are new to Lesley, you will also receive an email from IT as early as 8 weeks prior to the start of the course date with your Lesley account credentials to access Blackboard/myLesley and the Self-Service portal (links below). Please check your spam/junk boxes too.

    • Important: You will NOT receive an email from IT if you have an existing Lesley account from previous coursework, degree programs, etc. Please contact IT@lesley.edu.

    • Once you are able to log into Blackboard, you will see your course under the ‘my courses’ tab. Courses show up 6 weeks prior to the start date, and may appear out of order. Click here for a myLesley overview.

  • If you cannot log in to Blackboard within 2 weeks of the course start date – for any reason – you must contact IT@lesley.edu or call 617-349-8770.
