ALEKS - Set Permanent Student Passwords

This article applies to districts that use Direct Login and Manual Rostering. Direct Login means that teachers, students, and administrators log in at my.mheducation.com. Manual Rostering means that teachers manually redeem program content and roster their own classes.

If you are unsure which Access Service applies to your district, please see this article for more information.

You can also create permanent passwords for students by following the Import Students/Rosters steps. However, keep in mind, if the student already has an account created, adding a password through this process will only make it a temporary password.

When setting a permanent password, refer to the Password Policy article for requirements.

Note: Making adjustments to the student's Name, Student ID, Username, and Password changes these fields for all classes they are assigned to.
