That's it! Once you have created an account, you can log in and have full access to all content on the GynZone website.
I submitted my email to the AOM – now what?
Within 2-3 business days, you will receive an email from the GynZone website inviting you to join the “AOM team”. This email will contain instructions about how to make an account to gain access to all the online content. If you do not receive an email after 2-3 business days, please check you junk/spam folder for an email from GynZone. If you need to have the sign up invitation resent, please contact us at emma.anderson@aom.on.ca

Will my account work with the GynZone app?
Yes! You can download the free GynZone app for your smartphone or tablet to access the full GynZone learning library on the go. You can download the app for Android or Apple.
I’m on the wait list for access – what does that mean?
Our license with GynZone allows us to have 100 active members at a time. If you are on the waitlist, it means there are already 100 people signed up. As soon as a member’s 3 months is complete, we will be contacting members on the waitlist in order of signup to activate their registration. Because registration is ongoing, it’s difficult to know when a spot will become available, but you will be contacted by email to complete the registration once a spot is open as we move down the waitlist. Once you have completed the registration, you will gain access to GynZone for 3 months from the time you create your account, not from the time you joined the waitlist.
How long will I have access after I register?
Once you have completed your registration, you will have 3 full months of access. For example, if you register any time in March, you will have access immediately and continue to have access until the end of June. If you register any time in April, you will have access until the end of July… etc.
Once my access is expired, will I be charged automatically?
No! Once your access through the AOM has expired, you will lose “Pro” access and your account will be limited to free content. You will not be charged any money related to your access through the AOM.
Can I still access certificates of completion after my access expires?
No. Please be sure to download copies of your certificates of completion for any attended webinars, quizzes or courses for your records as soon as they become available upon completion. You will not be able to access these once your AOM-granted access expires.
What if I decide I don’t want my spot after I’ve registered?
If you have registered but decide you no longer need access – maybe you watched all the videos you were interested in, or any other reason you’re not planning to use it – that’s OK! You can keep your access just in case, or you can let us know and we can offer your spot to someone else. If you would like to resign your registration, please email us at emma.anderson@aom.on.ca.
