Tips for Troubleshooting Registration
IMPORTANT: The registration process for all professional development (PDP) courses requires you to register for your course and update your emergency contact information in CAESAR, Northwestern University's Student Enterprise System.
TECHNOLOGY REQUIREMENT:
Multi-factor authentication (MFA) is required to access Northwestern University systems used in PDP courses, including CAESAR and Canvas, Northwestern’s Learning Management System.
Northwestern uses the DUO Mobile app for MFA. Instructions to install the DUO Mobile App can be found here.
New students should begin this process immediately after receiving their NetID via email. The Identity Verification Process for DUO Enrollment for new students can take up to 5 business days.
Important Note:
It is a student’s responsibility to ensure access to Northwestern systems after registering for a PDP course. If you do not have a smartphone capable of downloading and using the DUO Mobile app, you may want to consider a YubiKey that can be purchased from several online retailers.
Please contact pdp@northwestern.edu with any questions.
