Here are some answers to frequently asked questions regarding account creation and registration for courses: I created an account, but I haven’t yet received a confirmation email. What do I do?  The account confirmation process can take 24- 48 hours. In the meantime, please continue to check your email, including spam/junk files. Your account will be confirmed if you have used a valid DFS ID number. If you still haven’t seen an email after 48 hours, please try to login and register. If, at that point you are receiving a message regarding account confirmation, please email jsteele@kean.edu. I thought I registered for a class, but now I’m seeing a message that says “Unable to join” what does that mean? This message means that the class is in the future and the Zoom link associated with it is not able to open because it is not yet time for the class to begin. Please follow the instructions in the brochure to confirm online that you are now registered for the classes you enrolled in. See the brochure, page 6 for instructions on this process. How do I withdraw/unenroll from a class? You are now able to login and withdraw/unenroll from classes directly from your account. Please see the brochure, page 5 for instructions on this process.

New Process to Withdraw From Courses We are excited to share a new process which allows students to withdraw from classes. We ask that all withdrawals be made at least one business day in advance of the class in order to allow other students to attend. For example, a class that begins at 8:30 a.m. on Monday would require a withdrawal by 8:30 a.m. the Friday before. Here is a link to a video explanation of the process. Here are written instructions of the process: To Withdraw from a course · Go to the web site www.keanfiresafety.com. · Click the Log In button (Log In button is in blue box at top right of keanfiresafety.com home screen.) · The next page you will be directed to is: www.keanolt.ourclassroom.net (background photo is Newark, NJ.) · Login to your account. · Click the down arrow at My Courses and you’ll see a dropdown menu that include the course(s) in which you have Registered/Enroled. · Click on the class from which you want to Unenrol/Withdraw. · Click the Cog (box with gears icon) to the left of My Courses. · Click the picture of the Cog that is on the next screen. · Confirm that the course showing on the screen is indeed the class from which you’d like to Unenrol/Withdraw. · Click the link that reads “Unenrol me from (class name). · Click the Continue to confirm the unenrol/withdraw.
