Notes:

  • Some of these verification options might not be available. You must have previously set up your mobile device for verification      for some of these methods to be listed. On first login, only the first option (alternate personal email) should be available. If none of these have been provided, you will need to contact the SLCC Help Desk to be able to proceed ((801) 957-5555 or helpdesk@slcc.edu).

 

6. Change your password.  IMPORTANT:  Your new password must meet SLCC Password Complexity requirements.

 

First Time Sign-In for New Students, Faculty and Staff

Once a student has been admitted, or two days prior to a new employee’s start date, an account will be created and an email with account information and login instructions will be sent.  For Students, this will go to the personal email account that is listed on your college account (typically entered during the registration or application process).  For Staff/Faculty, the new email will be sent to the employee and your supervisor.

If this is the first time you are setting up a password for SLCC, or you have been locked out of your account, you can use your recovery info to reset your work or school password.  Initially SLCC will set up some verification methods for you to be able reset your own password.  To do that, we use the personal email address that was provided when you registered/started work. If that information was incorrect, or you have forgotten it, you will have to contact the helpdesk at (801) 957-5555 or email HelpDesk@slcc.edu to get assistance logging in.

 

Your new password must follow these simply rules in complexity.  Password Complexity

 

**IMPORTANT** – You should set up as many different verification methods as you can, so if you get a new phone change emails, etc., one of the other methods will still work. View our article on Registering Password Reset Verification Methods
