How to Register

How do I register for Mountaineer Micro Academy courses?

1. Find your course listed on the WVU Micro Academy website or other WVU website and click the Register button or link to be directed to the Account Creation form (Step 2) or catalog page (Step 3).
   
   
   
2. Create an Account/Sign In

   First-time users will need to create an account on the WVU Genius portal system. Complete all fields on the registration form. If the Affiliation field is not already populated, check your course listing for the appropriate choice.

   After completing the form, a new account email with a temporary password will be sent to the address used during the registration process. Use the link in the email to sign in with the temporary password. The system will require you to change your password. 

   Returning learners will sign in using the username and password they created during their account setup. If sent to the Login/Create an Account form, use the text link at the top of the form to load the sign-in page.

   
   

3. Find Course in Catalog

   Find your course in the catalog. Click the More Info button and read the description carefully, specifically course pre-requisites, refund policies, and dates (located under the Section) before registering. There can be multiple sections for each course, so make your selections carefully.

     
   

4. Click Enroll to Add to Cart and Checkout

   After reviewing the description select Enroll to add the course to your shopping cart. The shopping cart is located in the top right of the screen and should now have a number icon showing the course was added.

   Click the shopping cart icon to view the added course. Again double-check dates to ensure you have the correct section.

   Click the Checkout button in the Shopping Cart. If you haven't already, you'll need to sign into your WVU Genius Portal account. First-time users will need to create an account. Read through Step 2 for instructions.
