Registering your account for the first time, and account management thereafter

  • Registering a User Account for the First Time
    • Go to the ISBA membership website if not already there
    • Click “Create new account” in the “User Login” section on the left of the page.
    • Enter a chosen username -- this can be anything -- and your current email address.
      Existing members, and others who received an email about registering from ISBA, MUST
      use exactly the email address ISBA used to contact you. This is very important because this email address
      is used to match your record in our system. If you want to change your email address, you
      can do it later once you have registered (see Editing Personal Information).
    • Then enter your first and last names in the relevant boxes; the other address information is optional and can be ignored at this initial registration stage. When names are entered, Click the “Create new
      account” button.
    • You will then receive an email from ISBA with a temporary password.
    • Return to the membership login page and log in with your username and temporary
      password.
    • To change your password, click the “My account” link in the left navigational panel. Click the
      “Edit” tab. Here you will be able to change your email address and/or your password. Click
      “Save” after you have made the changes.
