Where Is My CourseConnect Access Code?
Where you find your access depends on how you purchased your Springer Publishing materials.
Print book: If your eligible print title includes CourseConnect, look for the CourseConnect card bound inside the book. Scratch off the covered area to reveal your access code, then enter the code on the Springer Publishing Redeem Code page to activate your materials.
eBook through VitalSource: Open your eligible title in your VitalSource Bookshelf and confirm you have the correct title and ISBN. Reveal and copy your CourseConnect access code, then enter it on the Springer Publishing Redeem Code page.
CourseConnect digital access: If you purchased CourseConnect digital access directly, you may not need to redeem a separate code. Your course may already appear in your CourseConnect account under “Not Yet Started.”
Seven iPads, Seven Weekly Drawings
The CourseConnect Customer Sweepstakes includes seven weekly entry periods, with one potential winner selected for each period. See the Official Sweepstakes Rules for weekly entry periods and drawing dates.
Activating CourseConnect doesn’t just give eligible customers a chance to win. It also unlocks the learning materials included with your CourseConnect course so you can start putting those resources to use.
