These steps are for Windows only. If you need to use the EMS desktop client from a different operating system (such as macOS), please the Accessing EMS Desktop without Installing section below.
Using a web browser like Firefox, Chrome or Edge go to https://ems.geneseo.edu/emsDesktopWebDeploy/
Click the option to Download and Install the EMS Desktop Client
You may be prompted to download and save two files (EMSApplication.exe and emswebdeployconfiguration.cfg)
After the download completes, go to your downloads folder and double click on EMSApplication
If you are prompted for an EMS Web Deploy configuration URL, enter https://ems.geneseo.edu/emsdesktopWebdeploy/ then click OK
Otherwise the application should automatically begin to install
When the install completes, you should now be presented with the EMS login window, enter your EMS User ID and Password to use the application.
Andrea Klein creates the EMS accounts. The EMS Desktop client is not a single sign-on application.
If you cannot install the EMS desktop client on your computer, you can access the EMS Web Client. This has much of the same functionality as the Windows EMS desktop. This is especially helpful for Mac users.
Using a web browser, go to: https://ems.geneseo.edu/EMSWebClient/
If you need an EMS account, Contact Andrea Klein or Ask CIT!
