Create a MindTap Course in NGLSync

Create a MindTap course in NGLSync.
Note If your district uses Cengage bulk rostering services or a Single Sign-On (SSO) experience, your courses will be created and managed for you. Only teachers whose districts use self-enrollment or Google Classroom should create their own courses.

If you don't know if you should create a course in NGLSync, contact your technology coordinator.

Note These instructions are for K–12 teachers who use NGLSync to manage their MindTap courses.
  1. If needed, sign in to NGLSync at nglsync.cengage.com.
  2. Click Create Course.
  3. Select Start a new course and click Next.
  4. Select your school and click Next.
  5. Select a product and click Next.

    You can scroll through the products purchased by your district, or search by name, subject, or author.

  6. Enter your course name, start date, and end date.
    You can edit this information later.
  7. Optional: To prevent students from automatically joining your course after a certain date, set Student self registration to Require approval and enter a date in Require approval on.
    Tip Requiring enrollment approval deters cheating from students with duplicate accounts.

    If a student tries to join your course after your chosen date, you will receive an email notification and can approve or deny their request.

  8. Click Next.
  9. Review your course information and click Finish.
Your course is created in your learning platform and shown on your NGLSync My Courses page.
