Registration tip for PCAs:

If you have a Unique Minnesota Provider Identifier (UMPI) number, have it on hand when you create your profile. Providing your UMPI number allows Direct Support Connect to verify your background check.

If you need to look up your UMPI number, contact your current agency or fiscal support entity (or previous employer, if you're not currently affiliated with an agency or fiscal support entity).
