IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON

MVME REGISTRATION

 

·        You do not have to register with the MVME to either list a material or join the mailing list. You do, however, have to register to view the contact information for a listing. 

 

·        Registration is encouraged because it will simplify your use of the MVME site. As a registered user, you will be able to (1) view contact information, (2) list materials and (3) report successes just by entering your username and password. Non-registered users must re-enter contact information for these three activities.

 

 

HOW TO INQUIRE ABOUT A MATERIAL

 

To search for a material on the MVME website, follow these instructions:

 

  1. On the MVME homepage, enter your search criteria into the QUICK SEARCH box and click on the SEARCH button.  This will take you to the SEARCH RESULTS page.
  2. To search by location or to display your results in a specified order, go to the SEARCH page by clicking on MATERIALS > SEARCH MATERIALS in the menu bar. This will take you to the SEARCH page where you can specify more criteria in your search. After entering your data, click on the SEARCH button.  This will take you to the SEARCH RESULTS page.
  3. After specifying your search in either (1) or (2), you will be taken to the SEARCH RESULTS page, where the information that has been gathered from the MVME database will be formatted for you to view. At this point, you should review the information, and decide which of the listings you would like to view for additional information.  Click on the blue listing code to view more information about the listing.
  4. Once you have clicked on a listing code, more information on that listing will be displayed for you.  At this point, you may either click on the BACK TO SEARCH button, the CONTACT INFO button, or the REGISTER NOW button.  Clicking on the BACK TO SEARCH button will take you back one page to your search results.  Clicking on the CONTACT INFO will take you to one of two possible pages.  If you have previously registered with the MVME website then you will be either taken directly to the CONTACT INFO page or you will be taken to the LOGIN page and prompted to enter your MVME username and password and then directed to the CONTACT INFO page.  However, if you have NOT previously registered with the MVME, then once you are taken to the LOGIN page, click on the REGISTER NOW button and enter the required information. Once you have entered all the required information, you will be taken to the CONTACT INFO page.  IMPORTANT: Make sure to remember your MVME Username and Password!
  5. After you get to the CONTACT INFO page, you may write down or print out the contact info and get in contact with the company’s contact person or simply click on the E-mail button and your inquiry will be forwarded by CERTT to the listing company.  (Note: If you are successful in exchanging the material you inquired about, please let CERTT know on our SUCCESSES page.)
  6. After you are finished with the CONTACT INFO page, you can click on the RETURN TO SEARCH button to look for more listings or start a new search on the NEW SEARCH bar at the bottom of the page.

 

HOW TO LIST A MATERIAL

 

To list a material you either have or want, follow these instructions:

  1. Go to the LIST A MATERIAL page by clicking on MVME < LIST A MATERIAL in the menu bar.  If you have previously registered with the MVME website, then enter your username where prompted and go to step 3.  If you have not previously registered with the MVME website, then continue to step 2.
  2. If you have not previously registered with the MVME, then you can do one of two things.  Either click on the REGISTER NOW button and be taken to the REGISTER page where you fill out the form and choose a Username and Password and then continue to list the material.  Or, if you choose not to register now, just fill out the form on the LIST A MATERIAL page and continue to step 3.
  3. Once you have entered your Username and Password (or filled out the contact information), fill out the information on the material you want to list.  After you are finished entering the required information, please carefully check over everything to verify it is all correct.  (Remember: Once you send an email, it cannot be unsent!)  After clicking on the SUBMIT button at the bottom of the page, you will receive a statement confirming the information has been sent to CERTT.
  4. Your listing will appear in the next newsletter.  If CERTT has any questions about your listing, you will be contacted.
