Registration Requirements

Before starting registration, see partner eligibility to view partner program requirements to qualify as an EDPS provider. Make sure you have a Live ID, and make sure it’s associated to your Partner Organization by associating with the company MPN ID# used to register for EDPS. If not, you won’t appear in the partner database which may affect the approval process.
