MTA Online Learning Center

Welcome to MTA Online! If your township has already purchased an MTA Online Annual Subscription package, read on for details on how to start learning! 

Looking to learn more about MTA Online packages, and how to get signed up? Visit the MTA Online Subscription page here.

Getting Started with your MTA Online subscription package

All township officials and team members who had an email address on file with MTA at the time of your enrollment will be automatically subscribed and an email confirmation sent to the address on file. (See below for details on requesting accounts for new users at your township.)

Your login for this site is now the same email address and password used for your MTA member website access. (Due to recent upgrades, you may be required to reset your MTA member website password. Please refer to the email from MTA with your unique first-time login link, or email database@michigantownships.org to have the link re-sent.)

Once you are logged in, click on MY WEBCASTS in the navigation bar to see the webcasts included in your package.

Click the name of the webcast you wish to view. From here you can download the presentation and other materials on the "Handouts" tab, see MTA publications and other resources on related topics on the "Resources" tab, or navigate to the "Content" tab and click the first segment to begin (click the green "View" to begin the first video).

We strongly recommend running a self-test on your computer before attempting to view your first webcast. Visit our Getting Started page to see additional information on system requirements.

Adding New Users
Remember, your MTA Online subscription includes access not only for elected officials, but also for deputies, members of boards and commissions, township staff and even volunteers! Additional users who were not included in your initial roster may be added at any time. Each individual must have a unique email address that is not shared with another user. 

Clerks may update the township's roster by logging in to the MTA member website. For instructions on how to add, remove or edit individuals on your township roster, visit https://www.michigantownships.org/update.asp. You must notify MTA (email education@michigantownships.org) after your changes are made in order to have individuals added to your webcast subscription.

Please note: Although new users added later in the year may see a later expiration date listed in their account, all individuals from your township will be subject to the original renewal/expiration date set by the township's subscription purchase date.

Bonus Content & Classes
New courses or additional content may be added throughout the year for Premium and Plus level subscriptions; details will be emailed to subscription holders when available. Premium Pass subscription holders will get automatic access to recorded versions of MTA New Officials Training, Treasurer's Guide to Tax Collection and Board of Review Training from April through June, 2021.

Policies
Each subscription level includes a specific set of webcast courses, with access available for individuals affiliated with that specific member township. Additional courses may be added but are not guaranteed. To access courses not included at your subscription level, you may purchase them individually, or upgrade your subscription (contact MTA for details). Each user account must have a unique email address and password, as well as required contact information, in order to access the subscription. Some courses may be limited to a specific window of time. MTA Online subscriptions do not include access to, or registration for, any live or in-person classes or workshops unless specified in writing by MTA. You may not use your township's subscription to provide access to another person who is not affiliated with your township. See terms & conditions for additional details.
