The eMINTS 2009-2010 registration process is available online ....

If you are from Missouri and seeking to register a replacement teacher, a new eMINTS or eMINTS4All teacher of a new PD4ETS participant who will be trained by eMINTS staff, please use this link. If you are a school/district instructional specialist (in Missouri and all other eMINTS locations) who is providing eMINTS PD to official eMINTS or eMINTS4All teachers going into Year 1 OR Year 2 of the program, you should also use this link to register your teachers so they will have access to eMINTS materials and information. It is necessary to re-register teachers or PD4ETS participants who are going into Year 2 of their programs in fall 2009-2010 so that we can ensure everyone's contact information is updated and that they are in the correct course(s).
