The Buzz Platform is a learning management system where Accelerate Education courses are stored. The purpose of the contact information verification process is to ensure that information for/about students is not inadvertently being shared with unintended recipients.

All users that access the Buzz platform must verify their email address. Users can include teachers, students, and observers (OEAs, coaches, guardians / parents).

After logging into Genius, click Go to LMS from the left navigation menu.

Click the computer icon next to Accelerate Education. This will open Buzz in a new tab.

Click Settings on the notification banner.

Another way to access Settings is to click the drop-down triangle by your name at the top right of the page and then click Settings.

Click Send Code and an email will be sent to the email address that is on file in Buzz.

Email verification: Go to your email, copy the code from the email message, and paste or type the number into the Code field in Buzz. The verification code will expire in 15 minutes.

Click Verify to complete the process.
