Nau mai, haere mai! Welcome to Whitireia!

Online Learning Centre staff extends a warm welcome to all new and returning students.

Below are some pointers to help ease your way into the Whitireia environment:

Emails sent from Whitireia Online (Moodle)

For people using cloud based email services such as Gmail, Yahoo, MSN, Hotmail etc, you may find that some email messages being sent from your courses on Moodle do not seem to make it to your email inbox folders. This is due to your email providers spam filtering system, recognising emails sent from Moodle as spam/jumk mail.  Check your spam/junk mail folders to see if emails are being marked as spam.  You should be able to add these emails to your "trusted" list so that they appear within your inbox in future.  Alternatively you may choose to use your Whitireia student email address instead. For assistance using your Whitireia student email contact ICT Services (see Key contacts below).
