Pre-registation in TargetConnect
TargetConnect is the Deakin system that contains your Orientation program. This is where you will register for Orientation sessions and events.
We recommend new students activate their Deakin account before registering for sessions and events.
If you are unable to activate your Deakin account, please register a temporary account so you can register for Orientation sessions and events. This is called pre-registration.
Note: Once you have registered for sessions and events using this temporary pre-registration login, you will need use the same pre-registration login to access your registered activities.
How to pre-register
- Access to pre-registration will be granted to students without a Deakin username and password on Wednesday 12 February 2025.
- Click the button above to go to the pre-registration landing page in TargetConnect.
- Click Register in the second box and follow the instructions.
- Locate the sessions and events you are interested in by searching for 'Orientation'.
- Register for the sessions and events applicable to you.
- You will receive a confirmation email for each session and event you register for. You will also receive a calendar invite for each session which we recommend you save to your Deakin Outlook Calendar.
- Links to the event page and 'join the session' are in your confirmation email and your calendar invite.
- A reminder email will be sent one hour prior to the event and/or session.
- You can manage your session and event registrations in TargetConnect (cancel, change session attendance, 'join the session' etc.).
- The 'join the session' link becomes active when the event time goes live, not before.
