CEs can activate their account either via the activation link or activation code which is provided by their respective certification body.&#x20;

This process allows for flexibility, enabling CEs to choose the method that best suits their needs. The activation link offers a quick, one-click method, while the activation code provides a manual alternative for those who may have issues with the link or prefer a more controlled activation process. Both methods ensure that CEs can securely and efficiently activate their accounts and access the system.<br>
