Action Required – Set Up EdPortal Access for ACHIEVE Training
Attached are step-by-step instructions to help you determine whether you already have an existing Okta account for EdPortal. If you do have an account, the system will notify you; if not, you will be prompted to create one.
After confirming or creating your account, you’ll need to log in to EdPortal and set your Administrative Organization and Administrative Code by selecting the correct district. Please note: you do not need to request the ACHIEVE role manually. The system uses an auto-provisioning process to connect your EdPortal profile with your district’s Student Information System (SIS), based on the information you enter.
To ensure uninterrupted access for your upcoming ACHIEVE training, please complete this setup as soon as possible.
