I just joined the insider program. I want to enroll in the exstended update program for windows 10 and I do not see a way to do that in settings.

Hi,

You don't have to join Insiders to get the ESU

enrollment. It will appear under Windows Updates

(maybe optional updates) when it's available.

    Enrollment opton is first offered for Insiders, but you don't have to be in Insider Program to be able to enroll ESU. I have keep one Windows 10 Pro Preview installation just to see what happen and so far I haven't get option to enroll to ESU. Just wait untill enroll option appear to Windows Update page.

    Here is MS support instructions how ro enroll:
