Generate Passcode for Students

Owners and Co-teachers can create a Passcode (formerly known as two-hour temporary password) for students in their Class Groups. This Passcode grants students temporary access to the SLS if they had forgotten their password or if their accounts had been locked.

However, when students use a Passcode to log in, they will not be able to access My Profile, and hence cannot change their password, security question answers, or email address.

Note: For a permanent solution, students can follow this guide on Student - Reset Password to reset their passwords. If they still encounter difficulties, and you are unable to reset their password for them, you should contact the SLS Helpdesk or your school's SLS Administrator. Only the SLS Helpdesk and SLS school administrator are able to unlock a student's account. The SLS Helpdesk will need to verify a student's identity using the security questions that were set up when his/her account was first activated.

Access Class Group

There are multiple ways to access the Class Groups page.
- Class Groups tab on the homepage

Generate Passcode

Select the Class Group containing the student(s) you want to generate a Passcode for. Click the Admin tab to view Group Details.
Below Subgroup List, click Generate Temporary Passcode under Passcode Settings.
Enter a Passcode and re-enter it for confirmation.

Note: The Passcode must follow the password guidelines.
Click Generate Passcode.
On the confirmation prompt, verify that the correct class group has been selected.
Click Proceed.

Note:

The Passcode needs to be entered at the existing SLS login page and not the MIMS login page.
Students can either use their own password or the Passcode generated to log in to SLS.
