Your Login Name must be at least six characters long and may only contain alphabetic or numeric characters, or the characters "@_.-". An email address is acceptable.

Your password must be at least 8 characters long, although we recommend 12. It should contain a mixture of alphabetic and numeric characters and should not contain any real words.

Email Address

It is highly recommended that you enter an email address so you can receive communications from your organization. This also helps to prevent the creation of duplicate accounts and allows passwords to be reset. You cannot enter an email address that is used by another account so if you share an email account with another person, only one of you can enter an email address. You cannot share login accounts.

Free email accounts are available at gmail.com, yahoo.com, and other organizations. You can even forward mail from these accounts to another email account. If you refuse to have your own email account please leave the email address field blank.
