Getting started
An account, the way around, and the tools that follow you everywhere.
What ACADA is
A marketplace of courses taught by people who do the work; one account learns, and can also create, collaborate and earn as an affiliate.
Creating an account
Sign up with an email and password, or Google or GitHub, from age 13; during the beta a new account needs an invite.
Signing in and staying signed in
Sign in with your email and password, or Google or GitHub; with two-factor on, every sign-in also asks for a code.
Resetting a forgotten password
Ask for a link at acada.ac/forgot-password and open it on any device; it sets a password and signs out every device.
Arriving through a referral link
An affiliate's link asks before it remembers who sent you; say yes and they are credited if you enrol within 90 days.
Room invite links
An invite link joins you to a group room, in its general channel, until it expires, runs out of uses or is replaced.
The waitlist and access codes
During the private beta a new account needs an invite: join the waitlist and we email you a code when a place opens.
Finding your way around
The sidebar moves you between areas and the header holds search, tools and your account; on a phone, the bottom bar and Menu.
Your dashboard
Your enrolled courses with Continue or Begin, your tasks across them, and your academic notifications.
Keyboard shortcuts
Press / or Ctrl+K to search, Alt+A for the Assistant, and Ctrl+Alt with N, C, F, U or W for the study tools.
Language and display currency
The globe translates pages into one of 133 languages; Settings shows an approximate local amount beside US dollar prices.
Tips, feedback and your home screen
Tips show once where they apply, the Feedback button reaches us during the beta, and ACADA can sit on a phone home screen.
The ACADA Assistant
An AI in the header, or Alt+A, that explains ACADA and the lesson you have open, up to 60 messages a day.
