The member-training portal known as the “U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary Virtual Classroom” has moved to a new location and is now called the Coast Guard Auxiliary Online Classroom.

The Direct link (URL) to the new MOODLE Online Classroom is: https://classroom2.cgaux.org/moodle/

Everyone is now a first-time learner to this specific site and will need to create a new account using your Member ID, associated email address and a new password. Once a new account is created, you will be given access to the New AUX Classroom.

The New AUX Online Classroom requires all users to create a STRONG password with 10-characters, UPPER & lower case letters, numbers, and special characters. To better visualize, here is an example of a STRONG password: ABcdef12#$

The following link below provides access to a Video Tutorial on how to Create a New Account in the New AUX Classroom.

These links are also available on the system Log-in page. Another significant change is the way in which you register for a self-pace course. This is a part of our security upgrade. The new protocols require that every course have an extra layer of security at the course level. This is accomplished using enrollment keys for self-paced courses. An enrollment key is simply a 4-6 character code unique to each course that unlocks the course for individual learners.

Within the new AUX Classroom, there are now 2 types of enrollments.

1. Manual Enrollment: This is used for courses that have specialized enrollment criteria such as C-Schools or courses with limited enrollment. Students will be enrolled directly by the course instructor.
2. Self-Enrollment/Self-Paced: Any course open for self-enrollment now requires an enrollment key.
   
   Each Directorate is responsible for securely maintaining a list of enrollment keys associated with their self-paced courses and also has a special page on their WOW site called "Enrollment Keys". You can access enrollment keys using your Member Zone (MZ) password. A video showing the process is available to view after login to the New AUX Classroom.
   
   Note: For security reasons please DO NOT copy/share these codes or post them on other websites.
   
   Your access or password for the Member Zone (MZ) and to the National Testing Center (https://ntc2.cgaux.org/NTC) ) has not changed.

A few other points of consideration are:

• Due to the change-over and enhanced security, prior enrollments and past learning history from the OLD AUX Classroom could not be rolled into the new system. Nothing transferred to the New AUX Classroom.
• Users will have to re-register for any self-paced courses they were engaged in prior to the transition.
• Any training completed in the old system and verified through the National Testing Center is safely recorded in AUXDATA. This includes Core Training and the Basic Qualification Course as well the AUXOP courses.
• Some old/outdated training content from multiple directorates were not transitioned to the new system because they were unable to run in the new secured system.
• Certain other valid training courses transitioned to the new system but are hidden for now while they are being updated. Once complete, they will be available again.
• Users enrolled in self-paced training can re-enroll in the same course within the new system. Unlike the old system the new system can track user progress and even generate certificates of completion.
