    Registration for accounts should be completed within the Introduction to Homeless Management Information System (HMIS) course within the Learning Management System (LMS). This is done so that it alerts us that the user in training is ready for their access to the training HMIS site and that only users that should have accounts have access to the form. Please follow the following steps to register for an HMIS account:

    1. Navigate to and log in the LMS
    2. Click the Introduction to Homeless Management Information System (HMIS) course
    3. Scroll down to the Content
    4. Find and click the module: Setting up a Training Account & Registration form
    5. Complete the form and click Submit
    6. Check for the confirmation email

    *See the following video for a quick demo:
