**To Request an AD (Active Directory) Guest Account, use the following procedure:**

1. Submit a ticket to ITS through [help.nnu.edu](http://help.nnu.edu/) at least three days before the accounts are needed.
2. In the ticket, the following information must be included:
  1. The Employee Sponsor’s full name and University ID number
  2. The start and end dates of the event
  3. The number of accounts needed.
    1. Accounts can be shared, but only if necessary.
    2. For events needing multiple classrooms, one account per classroom is preferred.
  4. The name of the person(s) who will be using or who is in charge of the accounts during the event.
  5. The date the accounts will be needed, if before the event’s start date.


> ℹ️ **Important Note:**  AD guest accounts are only necessary if a guest needs to log into a campus managed laptop or desktop (i.e., take a test on a lab machine or special events). AD guest accounts do not give access to the wireless network. For a [wireless guest access](https://nnuitservices.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/TMR/pages/2497123), a wireless account has to be created.
