How it works and answers to frequently asked questions:
Getting Started
Important First Step! – Before you reserve or purchase your training, obtain your USER ID and password by registering for an account at cemstraining.com.
If the participant already has a USER ID & password, proceed to reserving and purchasing your training.
Each attendee must be registered with an individual email — one log-in per person.
You must access the class with the same email you used to register on the site.
You cannot use general company emails, such as “info@hvac.com”.
Registration deadline: You must register by 3 pm at least two business days (Mon-Fri) prior to the start of a class.
Completing a class: You must attend the entire class (including both days of a 2-day class) and pass a quiz to receive the course credit and certificate.
Mandatory Quiz: When completing any live class, you will need to sign into your account and pass a 10 or 20-question quiz. Self Study Courses will provide the quiz at the end of training.
You must score at least 80% to pass. You can re-take the quiz up to two times if needed to achieve a passing score. If you fail twice, you will need to purchase and retake the training.
Certificates of Completion
You can download your course completion certificate from the “My Account” page of this website.
Certificates for Co-op
If you are a participating CE MidSouth dealer and wish to co-op your training costs, you must submit the factory version of the course completion certificate.
This can be downloaded from https://mlctraining.com/training/history/classroom/” approximately two to three weeks after the course/event. This certificate is only available for trainees who attended the entire class and passed the quiz.
Types of Courses Offered
Virtual (Zoom Webinar)
In addition to the individual viewing option, you can now involve multiple employees in group training sessions (with a large screen in a training room, for example). In this case, your company can use one webinar link.
Each participant still needs to:
a) register at www.cemstraining.com
b) sign back into his account and take the quiz at the end of the class
Only those originally registered for the webinar can take the quiz and receive credit. Substitutes cannot be accepted the day of class.
Don’t know your login credentials? First, try resetting your password from the site. If needed, feel free to reach out to tech support at least 2 days before training day.
Zoom Accounts
You must have a Zoom account to access webinar content. To create a free account, go to: https://zoom.us/signup (Your Zoom email must match the individual email you used to create your training account.)
You will receive an individual class link specific to you. Do not forward the link. Anyone attempting to use another person’s link will not receive credit, as there will be no record of registration nor access to the quiz.
In-person – Once you reserve your seat at the desired location, you will receive a link to download course materials (if available). Seats are limited.
Self-Study – For this self-paced option, you will receive all course material and pre-recorded videos of the live class presentation. You can start and complete the class at your convenience. You must complete the entire class and pass the quiz to receive credit.
NATE Credit
Be sure to add your NATE ID number to your profile in the “My Account” section of the website. Once you do, we will submit your CEUs to NATE on your behalf. All certificates include the NATE course ID for your records.
