Once you receive an email from OLN confirming your registration for a TeachU seminar, you will be asked to create an account in the Ohio Learning Network Collaboration Suite. If you already have an account in OLN's Collaboration Suite, you do not need to create a new account, so you can skip Part 1 and go directly to Part 2.
