Register for an account on Forbes.com

  1. Go to Forbes.com
  2. Click on the "Sign In" link 
  3. In the email field, be sure to enter your COCC email address. This is what links it to our institutional subscription. 
  4. You'll be prompted to create a password. This is specific to Forbes.com, so be sure you remember it later. 
  5. After creating a password, you encounter a series of "onboarding" screens asking for personal information and interests to personalize your account. You can skip all of these screens if you don't wish to provide this information.

  6. Use the "skip" navigation button if you don't want to provide your personal information.

  7. The final screen in this series prompts you to subscribe. Be sure to click "Skip" here, as you're going to have access through our institutional subscription and don't need to pay for your own.

  8. Make sure to use the skip navigation option on the subscription page!

  9. After you've progressed through the "onboarding" screens, click "Back to reading" to return to the Forbes content site.

  10. Use the "return ot reading" link to exit the account creation process and go back to the website content.
