Title: Encampment sign up issues
Post by: Hummingbird on April 12, 2016, 05:45:13 PM
Alright, so

I'm having issues with part 1 of the basic encampment sign up process. I'm not signing up as staff or anything, just a cadet. Part 1 won't accept my password for my ID, and it shouldn't be wrong because I can still sign into eservices. What am I doing wrong?

You're using this web site? http://encampment.nywgcadets.org (http://encampment.nywgcadets.org)

It says right on the registration page -- http://www.burns-computing.com/enc2016/register.php (http://www.burns-computing.com/enc2016/register.php) -- that you have to create your own password just for that site. You don't use your eServices password.

+1. If you've already registered and forgot your password, contact the Registrar (Maj. Falco) and try to work it out that way.

Congrats on going to encampment, don't forget to have fun!

Np. What was the issue? Other cadets facing similar issues might benefit from the issue and solution you had.

I didn't realize I had to register on the encampment site prior to signing up for encampment, and assumed that it was linked to eservices or that signing up for the first time would create an account. Stupid mistake on my part.

^ This is not unusual.  The CEAP system doesn't make it clear there are local processes, either.

We've had approved CEAP money from cadets who weren't on the roster - the system should be updated to reflect there are
multiple places to sign up.
