Update Username & Password

In this article you will learn how to update or change information for existing users (staff or students)*. All updates and changes must follow the original Rostering Guidelines provided to your District/School Rostering Lead.

• *NOTE for HMH Customers - HMH Customers will update usernames and passwords for staff and students via Ed: Your Friend in Learning. For help with Ed rostering, contact HMH Technical Support via techsupport@hmhco.com.

Roster Setup

Each district/school has a Roster Lead who set up staff and student usernames and passwords via Amira’s Rostering Process.  Staff usernames are emails.  Student usernames typically follow a district naming convention with a three-letter prefix added to the front to keep the student usernames unique within the Amira database.

Requesting a change or update for staff

To request a change to usernames or passwords for staff, contact your Roster Lead with your current username and your request. Your Roster Lead will need to submit a CSV file with columns to represent only the changes: one column with your existing username (email) and the other column(s) with the new information.

Change Password Example (format of CSV):

Column 1: Email

• firstlast@gmail.com

‍

Column 2: NEW Password

• SomethingSecure
