Posting a discussion is one of the most basic responsibilities as a student consultant. To do so, you'll first have to log in to your client's portal. You'll see the following screen:

First, make sure to find your course (click the "Courses" tab, red square). As you can see in the image above, you'll see a list of the courses the client is enrolled in. If you can't see your course, make sure to click "All Courses" (blue square). 

Once you find it, you'll see the homepage:


Click on the "Modules" tab, and you'll see a breakdown of all the weeks and assignments for the course. There, you'll find every link for each discussion post. Click the one you're looking for: 

Important note: Some courses have a "Discussions" tab directly on their home page (usually below the Modules tab). If that is the case, you can just click that tab and search for the discussion you're trying to post. The rest of the steps are the same.  

Inside the discussion, you'll see the instructions and prompt. Below all that, there's a "Reply" tab, you need to click there to write or paste the post. You can also attach documents, images, and videos if necessary.

 

That's it! Your discussion post is officially submitted.
