Students who wish to use SmartDraw for one of their courses should contact the faculty member teaching that course, who will then initiate the account creation request on behalf of the students.

After a new account has been created, the account holder receives an automatic invitation email from SmartDraw.com with information about how to complete the account creation process (see the FAQ below for more information).
