Join Codes and Join Links are an easy way to get students connected to a section. If your students have school emails through Google or Microsoft, they are able to create Skill Struck accounts using a Join Code or Join Link. Students that already have Skill Struck accounts can also use Join Codes and Join Links to connect to a section.

 

Please note that while it is possible to use Join Codes with other sign-in methods, this feature is best used with Google and Microsoft single sign-on.
