Changing your password
Having problems getting into the portal? Here's how to reset your password.
It's actually very easy, but it's a 2 step process.You can now log into the portal, using this new password. Note - once you log in, you should immediately change your password to something more memorable.
- Click on the "request password reset" link, at the bottom of the home screen. This will send an email to you, which contains a "validation link" inside.
- Open the email, and click on that validation link. This will take you back to portal, where you will see a confirmation message telling you that your new password has been emailed to you.
- A second email will be sent out, and this one contains your new password. Write this down in a safe place.
To do this, click on your username (at the top right of the main menu bar), which opens up a selection of drop-down menus - click on "change password" and this will take you to the password reset screen.
Here you will need to re-type that emailed password, and then you can change it to something more memorable by entering it on the following line, and then re-confirming it.
Here's a quick video which shows the whole process:
