How to create an account on www.opensesame.com

Note: If you access OpenSesame through a window in a learning platform, sign in to your platform and open the integration there instead.

To create an OpenSesame account, visit www.opensesame.com and select Login.

A new tab opens. Use its Sign up link.

Note: To connect a Google account and always use it to sign in, select Sign in with Google instead. After you complete Google’s steps, you reach OpenSesame's Terms of Use page.

Enter the following information:

1. Email address
2. First name
3. Last name
4. Company name
5. A password

The password needs:

• At least 8 characters (and no more than 128)
• Uppercase and lowercase letters
• At least 1 number

For greater security, use a long password that includes symbols.

When finished, select Create account.

Next, verify your email address. Check the inbox for the address you entered.

The verification email comes from info@idp.opensesame.com with the subject “Welcome to OpenSesame.”

Note: If the email doesn’t arrive, check your spam folder. If it's not there either, confirm with your IT team that emails from info@idp.opensesame.com are allowed.

Use the Verify your email button. The link expires in 5 minutes. (If the link expires before you use it, return to the login page and enter your email address to send a new one.)

The link may open one of two pages:

1. A Terms of Use page.
2. A verification code.

If you receive a verification code:

1. Return to the previous page.
2. Select Enter a verification code instead.
3. Enter the code and select Verify email. This leads to the Terms of Use page.

To continue, review and select the terms of use and privacy policy, then select Accept Terms.

This signs you in and goes to the OpenSesame catalog. Your account is created!

From here, you can browse courses or open the account menu to explore your dashboard.
