If you or the people on your membership experience difficulties accessing the E-Learning here are some recommendations

Use Chrome as a browser when accessing the e-learning
Clear your cache, if you have difficult connecting to your membership.

I can’t login to my E-Learning because I do not have the “Access to the Skills System E-Learning” login email.

If the login email is not in spam or the inbox, reach out to the person who added you to the E-Learning. Ask that person to send you the temporary password that is listed on their My Account and Manage My Members page.
Once you get the password, go to this URL: https://members.skillssystem.com (or click the blue E-Learning Login button on the top of the https://skillssystem.com main website) and add your email and password they gave you.

If deliverability is a problem due to your agency’s firewall, reach out to your IT department to have https://members.skillssystem.com whitelisted so emails from the Skills System can be allowed through the firewall.

I can’t see a member who I previously added to my E-Learning Group or Clinician membership.

The administrator of a Group membership can Cancel Access of a members. After being canceled, the person’s name is removed from the Manage My Members list.

I tried to add a member, but I receive the message “This person cannot be added”.

If a person has previously been a member of the E-Learning (under another administrator), the administrator who is trying to re-add the individual may receive a “This person cannot be added” error message.
If this happens, please click on the Help Ticket button below and describe the situation, providing the member’s name and email who you need added.

IT Supports Likely to Require Additional Charges:

I would like to switch my Clinician membership to another administrator.

Unfortunately, Clinician memberships are not transferable.

I would like to switch the administrator of my Group membership to another person.

If the former Group administrator does not need access to the E-Learning, I can replace their name and email with the name/email of the new administrator without an additional fee. In this case the former administrator’s progress and access will be canceled.
If the previous administrator needs to have E-Learning access, it is a more involved process to transfer their Group members to a new administrator. This transfer is process it lengthy and requires specialized IT support that is not included in the purchase price of an E-Learning Group membership.
The fee depends on the size of the Group (usually $50-$100 fee per Group).
Clinician memberships are not transferable.
Click the Help Ticket button below to make these requests. Thoroughly describe the request and I will send an invoice to cover the additional fee (that can be paid via check or with credit card manually).

I would like to renew my E-Learning membership and regain all of the members that were listed on my Manage My Members page.

If an administrator does not renew a membership, access to the membership is canceled.
Once the membership is canceled all members associated with the membership lose access to the E-Learning.
There is an additional charge if the administrator wants to restore their members to the renewed membership after cancelation.
