Thompson Rivers University uses Moodle to deliver content and opportunities for interaction to both campus and Open Learning students.

Before you attempt to login to Moodle, you must ensure that you have registered at https://myid.tru.ca and saved an alternate email address. This will authenticate your credentials in Moodle and will allow you to retrieve your password without having to contact the Service Desk.


Go to https://moodle.tru.ca
