Online eXtension Education Account
The eXtension Campus is our Moodle platform for all our online courses. You need to create an account, if you don't already have one, to access any online course you've registered for.
Please create only ONE account. You will use this account to access any LGC online courses, as well as any online components of trainings like the Municipal Institute or Municipal Summits.
This account must be linked to you, not your position, to track your education hours if you're a clerk/treasurer or the certificates you've earned if you hold a different position.
We recommend using an email that you'll keep and continue to use even if you move to a different role or job.
If you choose to use your work email, do so only if it is specific to you. For example, if you use an email address such as positiontitle@nameoftown, it will cause complications with your account if you move to a new position and someone else takes over that email address.

HOW DO I CREATE AN ACCOUNT?
1. Open your web browser to https://campus.extension.org/login/signup.php. 2. Complete the “New Account” form (See Figure 1). Do NOT use your work email if it is a generic email rather than one that is specific to you. Choose "No" when asked if you are an Extension or USDA employee. Do not enter anything in the eXtension ID box. 3. Click the "Create my new account" button. 4. Check your email account for a confirmation email from eXtension Campus Help Desk. 5. If you do not see a confirmation email within 2 hours, check your junk/spam folders first, then email [email protected] with your username and email address and ask for a manual confirmation. 6. IMPORTANT: Open the email and click on the confirmation link provided to confirm your account. 7. A web page will open indicating that “Your registration has been confirmed.”ALREADY HAVE AN ACCOUNT BUT DON'T REMEMBER YOUR LOGIN INFO?
