Registration Walkthrough ThomsonNOW Note to professor or Thomson Rep: This registration applies to 2007 and select 2006 titles only. Hello, my name is __________________, your school’s Thomson representative. I thank you and your professor for giving me this time to walk you through the ThomsonNOW registration process. The tips I’m going to outline in the next few minutes will make the process much more smooth for you.

Go to www.thomsonedu.com Your first stop is www.thomsonedu.com. On the student side of the page, you’ll see a box that directs you to the registration process. To get started, click on the button that says “Create My Account.” Go to www.thomsonedu.com

Account Information Page To begin using ThomsonNOW, you’ll need to enter some basic information at the Account Information Page. You’ll need to create a password that’s six to fifteen characters in length. It’s a good idea to write the password down for later reference. The program is case sensitive, so take note of whether you’ve used upper or lower case letters. On this page, you’ll also need to enter a unique access code that allows you to create your personal account. You’ll find this access code on the printed card that accompanies your textbook. Or, if you purchase ThomsonNOW online, you’ll receive the access code at that time. Your e-mail address will become your username. (REP: You might want to have an example of this card on hand, so that students will be able to easily find what they’re looking for.) Account Information Page
