- This will change your single-sign on, Google Workplace and Microsoft 365 passwords. You will need to update your email client, phone, etc to login with the new password you've chosen.
- University staff who've forgotten their password may be able to get a one-time password via SMS to use in place of the "Old password".
- Guests or visitors who've forgotten their password will need to visit our Helpdesk on the middle floor of Struben building. You'll need to bring a photo ID with you.
- Please choose a strong password and don't reveal it to anyone else. Please see the password guidelines for suggestions.

Before changing your password
Changing your password will invalidate your Google 2-Step Verification. Before you change your password, please ensure that you have backup codes available. You can generate backup codes at the Google Account page. Once you've changed your password, you will need to use those backup codes to re-enroll your normal 2-Step Verification methods on the Google Account page. After that, please delete the backup codes.
