As a partner with the University of Minnesota (UMN), the Training Academy is able to leverage the University’s technology, security, and support for each user account. A UMN Guest Account is compatible with the applications used to build and support the Training Portal, as well as the learner management system (Canvas) that workers and supervisors will need to access. In essence, your UMN guest account is your access into training courses and the Training Portal.
A few things to note:
- UMN Guest Accounts are different from U of M staff/student email addresses (that end in umn.edu/d.umn.edu). UMN Guest Accounts give you the option to use your current work or county email address to create an account to access our Training Portal.
- If you attended a conference or event hosted by the U of M in the past, it is possible that you already created a Guest Account. If that’s the case, try logging in to your guest account with your email and password. You can also reset your password by clicking “forgot your password”.
- If you need to update your guest account email, contact UMN IT directly at 612-301-4357. This number is available 24/7. Make sure to specify that this is for a MN Child Welfare Training Academy guest account so you are routed appropriately.
