Frequently Asked Questions
How do I register without a College Board Educator Professional Account and why are there two different paths to the registration?
If you are applying for a NON-AP workshop then you will go through the normal TEC registration process. If you are selecting an AP workshop, you will be directed to another website to complete the registration.
The College Board is using a new registration system (Cvent) that all Advanced Placement Summer Institutes need to use.
If you are applying for an AP workshop, we cannot continue the registration process until you complete the College Board Educator Professional Account information page. It takes about 2 minutes to complete and once you have entered in the information, the system will recognize you for future years and workshop sessions.
