Introduction

Welcome to MutualGain’s online learning platform, MutualiLearn.  MutualiLearn is MutualGain’s online learningplatform; it is one of the access routes to our level 3 or level 4 qualifications in Building Social Capital through Community Engagement.  Designed in house by the MutualGain team, this qualification is nationally accredited through the Open College Network (London) and Ofqual.  It has been developed to help organisations to build social capital with communities through a high quality learning platform.

This guide has been developed to help you to select the indivi  dual modules or level 3 or 4 bundle that suit your learning needs.  Whether you are looking to purchase modules as an individual learner or for a number of learners, the guide will take you through the selection and payment process.

 

Getting Started – Choose Your Modules

To access the learning platform, please copy learning.mutualgain.org  into your browser.

We have created a five step process to help to get you started.  The five steps are shown below, but essentially, all you need to do is browse the modules available, select whether you want to learn online or offline and register using the button at the bottom of the Choose Your Modules page (see Fig 1.).

Getting Started – Create Your Account

In this step, you need to provide some information that will allow you purchase the modules that you are after.  Once you have added the required information, we will send you an email that will activate your account (see Fig.2 ).  Don’t forget to check your spam in case the activation email drops in here.

Once you activate your account, you will receive a second email that will automatically select a password for you (see Fig. 3).  It is really important that you copy this password and save it somewhere as you will need it later.

Your next step will re-set your password.    Having copied your password (see below), all you need to do is to click the re-set button.  Your account is now active and you can log in.
