Assignment

(A) Register for All of US.  This step was assigned prior to start of the course. If you have not done all registration steps, including training, then you will need to solve this problem quickly. This registration may take several weeks for students who do not have a State ID.  Otherwise, it should take about 90 minutes.  Also make sure that you remember your password as there are multiple accounts set up in this process.  You need to write down the password for each sign in separately on a piece of paper as you may confuse which password is needed when.

  1. Register for an account at https://www.researchallofus.org/register/
  2. Change from temporary password to a new password and record your password on paper somewhere.
  3. Turn on Google 2-Step Verification
  4. Verify your identity with Login.gov.  This step requires a state ID or Drivers License, and text phone.
  5. There are multiple passwords that you should keep in mind.  There is your GMU password, your research workbench password on All of Us and your computer password, and your Google password.  Please make sure that you keep these accounts separate and read the messages carefully to see which password is needed.
  6. Complete All of Us Registered Tier Training
  7. You do not need to get additional data access beyond registered-level data. George Mason University does not allow access to Controlled Tier.
  8. Sign the Code of Conduct form
