In January, when SMART was re-launched on our site with upgrades, we had our programmer remove any accounts that did not hold an active certificate, as many of them were very old. If you are not receiving a password reset link, and not sure when you last certified with SMART, please try to register a new account before sending an inquiry. If you are positive you have an active account with us, and need password assistance, visit the \u2018Contact\u2019 tab on this site or in your SMART account.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What is new about the SMART program after the re-launch?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-theme-palette-7-background-color has-background\" style=\"border-radius:6px\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>After switching programmers and undergoing some maintenance and updates, the SMART program is now more user and mobile friendly. The registration process now requires less information, and allows you to choose your own password, rather than having a random one emailed to you. Employees may now connect to multiple establishments, and there can be multiple managers attached to a singular establishment. The SMART exam is now more accessible to take over time, so servers and sellers don\u2019t feel rushed, and can really learn the information. Managers now only have access to employee\u2019s names and the date that they passed their exam.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Why is it important to affiliate with my place of work?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-theme-palette-7-background-color has-background\" style=\"border-radius:6px\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>When you affiliate with the establishment where you work, you can view relevant policies for your establishment and the establishment can maintain a listing of certified employees through SMART.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How do I sign up for the SMART program?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-theme-palette-7-background-color has-background\" style=\"border-radius:6px\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Please refer to the \u2018<a href=\"index.html\">Home<\/a>\u2019 page or \u2018<a href=\"employees.html\">Server<\/a>\u2019s page for instructions on how to register an account on the SMART site.

With the changes to the login and registration system, individual employees should set up their own account with their own e-mail address. As this account will follow them, regardless of their place of employment, managers or owners should refrain from creating accounts for employees. It is the policy of the SMART program that individual servers and sellers should set up their own accounts using their e-mail address. Any attempt by anyone other than the individual server\/seller to create an e-mail address or an account through the SMART system for the server\/seller is considered fraud by the policy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What if I do not have an e-mail address?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-theme-palette-7-background-color has-background\" style=\"border-radius:6px\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>You can easily get a free e-mail address through&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/mail.yahoo.com\/\"><strong>yahoo<\/strong><\/a>&nbsp;or&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/mail.google.com\/\"><strong>google<\/strong><\/a>.
