Getting an Account

To get an account on the Central Web Server, complete these steps (instructions below).

  1. Register as a Site Owner
    1. Take the ATI Training Survey
    2. Complete Required Training
  2. Request a site
  3. Assign a Developer

Your account goes through several phases before it is available at www.humboldt.edu/sitename.  Please read about the Account Activation Process.

See Also: Using Your Account

This flow-chart summarizes the steps to be taken.  Step-by-step instructions follow.

 

Text details of this process are outlined further down on the page

1.  Register as a Site Owner

To be a site owner, you need to take the ATI Training Survey and complete any required training (at a minimum, ATI Area 1).

Note: Owners can NOT login to their site and add content.  You must be a developer to be able to login.

1.1 Take the ATI Training Survey

This survey will help determine what type of site you need and the training modules that will need to take.

  1. Login to Account Center (formerly known as WebReg)
  2. Click the "Account Tools" tab
  3. Click “Manage Other Accounts”
  4. Click “Request A Web Site”
  5. Click "Take the ATI Training Survey" and complete the questions that are asked.

Note: If your responsibilities change (e.g., you only registered as an "owner" but now need to become a "developer") you will need to retake this survey.  If you register as an "owner" for one site and need to request an additional site (for which you will be the owner), you will not need to retake the survey.

1.2 Complete Required Training

Upon completion of the ATI survey, you will be added to the appropriate ATI courses in Moodle.  These courses may take up to one hour to appear in your Moodle course list. 

You will need to complete each of the required trainings before your site will be available.  You can track your progress by:

  1. Login to Account Center (formerly known as WebReg)
  2. Click the "Account Tools" tab
  3. Click “Manage Your Other Accounts”
  4. Click “Request A Web Site”
  5. Click "Complete Required ATI Training Modules"

For detailed information about these courses, see ATI Compliance.

Note: Once you have completed the required courses, you will not have to re-take these courses for additional sites.  You may have to take additional courses if you have a different level of responsibility (e.g., you are owner on one and developer on another).

 

2.  Request a Site

Use this tool to select your site name.  The address for the site (when it's made public) will be www.humboldt.edu/sitename. Feel free to pick a "nice" name for your site, such as www.humboldt.edu/cryptology instead of www.humboldt.edu/crpt_dept.

  1. Login to Account Center (formerly known as WebReg)
  2. Click the "Account Tools" tab
  3. Click “Manage Your Other Accounts”
  4. Click “Request A Web Site”
  5. Click "Request a Site"
  6. Follow the on-screen instructions to request a site.

 The Web Office will approve your site and you will be notified when your request has been processed.

You can check your status by clicking "Select a Site" under Account Tools > Manage Other Accounts > Manage Web Accounts in Account Center.  (You'll see the status next to the site name).

3.  Assign a Developer

Your account will not be active until a registered and ATI trained developer is assigned to it.  You must wait to do this step until after your site has been approved.

  1. Login to Account Center (formerly known as WebReg)
  2. Click the "Account Tools" tab
  3. Click “Manage Your Other Accounts”
  4. Click “Request A Web Site”
  5. Click "Assign a Developer"
  6. Follow the on-screen instructions to search for and assign a developer.
  7. If your developer isn't listed, they likely have not registered or completed the training.
  8. You can invite a person to become a developer by using the "Invite" button, which is available after you do a search.

 

Note: If you will be having someone work on your account who does not already have an HSU User Name & Password, you will need to request an account for them.  Use the Account Request Form and select Account Type "University Contractor".
