How online learning works

PolyeLearning is the online learning platform that CPL uses to give students access to our Pasifika language courses. It is powered by Moodle.

It gives you access to both your course materials and tutor support via your computer, tablet, iPad, or even your smart phone.

You’ll need access to WiFi and/or mobile data in order to use the the CPL PolyeLearning platform. All students can access all their learning content using PolyeLearning.

What will I find within PolyeLearning?

In PolyeLearning, you will be able to:

  • Access the teaching materials from your class (e.g. PowerPoint slides, audio files, video files and anything else that was used during the lesson)
  • Find important information about your course (e.g. important dates, student handbook, etc)
How do students access PolyeLearning?

When you complete your enrolment, you’ll be issued with a login and a password. Go to the PolyeLearning Login page and fill in your details.
