  2. Type your full Email address, for example name@institution.edu, in the form field provided.
  3. Click the Submit button; a temporary password will be sent to your email account.
  4. Within moments an automatically generated email with a temporary password will be sent to your email account.
    • NOTE: If you have received this email in error, please ignore it. Your current password will remain valid.
    • The email contains a link that, if clicked, will sign you in to your account and load the Change Password page for your user account.
    • Otherwise, note the temporary password at the bottom of the email and return to the Career Pathways login page. Type your email address and temporary password, and click Log In. (If you have set your browser to remember passwords, make sure to type in the new temporary password.)
    • You will be automatically redirected to the Change Password page for your user account.
      • Create and confirm your new password.
      • Add complexity, to your new password, by mixing uppercase and lowercase letters and numbers; 6-8 characters are recommended.
      • Write it down in a secure place.

Once Logged In

Your user name will appear at the top of the page under the Career Pathways header. All pages within the site will confirm your User name, and provide options to Change Password and Log Out.

Upon logging in, the Dashboard displays a Welcome... message and information such as Updates to the Career Pathways Web Tool, along with Quick Links to Report a Bug or Request a Feature.

You can return to the Dashboard at any time by clicking the link for Dashboard at the top of the side navigation menu, or the "Career Pathways Web Tool" header.
