Register with USLacrosse. STOP! This part is not optional! If you already have a fan, player or coach membership, you must add the officials category to your account. Once registered as an official with USLacrosse you will receive a membership number. Keep that number handy ... you'll need it later.
Attend the training sessions. The training is mandatory and is only offered once a year. There is an additional fee for the training seminar that covers the training material, ID badge and test administration fees. 
You must pass the rules test. The rules test will be offered at the conclusion of the training session.
