Logging in and Accessing Your Course

Reproduction, dissemination, or use in any format without prior authorization from Kansas Child Care Training Opportunities is strictly prohibited.

How to Log In

You’ve chosen your course. You’ve registered. What’s next? The first step is getting logged in! Logging in is your key to unlocking everything your course has to offer. Once you’re in, you’ll be able to explore your dashboard, see your course homepage, and get familiar with where to find announcements, your Professional Development Specialists contact, and get to know them a little bit, and begin your course.

Don’t worry! We’ll walk you through it step by step, so you’ll feel comfortable. Before you know it, logging in will be as simple as checking your email or scrolling through your favorite app.

Username and Password

On the morning of the course start date, you will receive a username and password before the course opens at noon. This will be sent to you via email from Cape. You will not see your course until noon, when it opens and becomes “live”.

TIP: Bookmark the site so it’s easy to come back to later!

TIP: Add a few contacts as safe senders to ensure you receive important correspondence regarding your course(s). If you do not see your email from Cape in your Inbox, check your spam or junk folder.

During the scheduled course session, you can access your course at any time of the day or night. You can log in and out as many times as you need.

Even if your course is approved for just a few clock hours, we don’t suggest that you complete the course in one sitting for two reasons:

1. KCCTO courses are interactive, which means you will need to respond to other participants and the course's Professional Development Specialist/Trainer. If you are the first person to start the course, you will need to return to the course before the end date to respond to other participants.
2. Some courses include assignments that ask you to do an activity in a child care setting and then log back in to post about the activity.

Good to Know: Your Professional Development Specialist/Trainer will be able to view when you have accessed the course content and assignments.

How to Access Your Course

Go to the KCCTO website and click on My KCCTO Trainings in the upper right corner.
Login is case sensitive, so enter your information exactly as it was provided to you.

1. Enter your username (KCCTO provided).
2. Enter your password (KCCTO provided).
3. Click Log In.

What’s my Password?

We know that passwords are hard to remember; that’s for sure. Luckily, for the KCCTO online class, you don’t have to try to be creative with your password because KCCTO provides it for you. Just watch your email. When it’s time for your course to begin, you’ll receive an email with your username and password. Use that information to log in and get started.

Need to register for a course?

When you’re ready to register for a course, you’ll do that through the Cape system. You will need a free account to register.

Need help? Check out our Knowledge Base articles for step-by-step instructions on finding and registering for a course in Cape Help Center (links to an outside website).

Visit the Professional Development page to search for courses that meet your needs.

Add the course(s) to your cart, then check out with a credit card.

Already registered for a course?

After your registration is processed, you’ll receive an email with your password on the morning your course begins. Your login information will stay the same for all future KCCTO courses you take.

Course already started, but you haven’t received your password yet?

Courses open at noon on the start date. Passwords are emailed out the morning that the course starts, but may not arrive in your inbox until close to noon. If you don’t receive your password by noon, please check your spam and junk folders. If you can’t find it, contact KCCTO for assistance at 785-532-7197 or kccto@ksu.edu.
