Intended Audience: District Representatives, REP
About
District representatives accessing the Michigan Virtual Student Learning Portal (SLP) to obtain REP Reports will be required to authenticate through a secure login. Upon the creation of their accounts, Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) will be activated. MFA serves as an extra layer of security, necessitating users to scan a QR code and set up an authenticator app during the authentication process. This measure ensures that only authorized personnel can access the data linked to the district.
This process details how to configure MFA for a user's first login to the SLP. If you have accessed the SLP before, please refer to the login process.
Before proceeding to the following steps, please ensure the following requirements have been met:
- REP reporting staff member has received the Student Learning Portal account creation email, and
- The appropriate authenticator application has been installed on a REP reporting staff member's mobile device.
Note: Authenticator applications commonly used are Microsoft Authenticator App and Google Authenticator App.
Instruction
- First, access the Student Learning Portal website.
- Next, insert login credentials using the Email and Password fields.
- Then tap the Sign in button. As a result, staff members will be prompted to setup MFA (also referred to as two-factor authentication).
- Begin by accessing the authenticator application on the staff member's mobile device.
- Next (still on the mobile device), add the account to the authenticator application (Microsoft or Google), which will turn on the camera.
- Use the camera to scan the QR code displayed on the Student Learning Portal (SLP) login screen.
- Once setup, there will be a 6-digit code displayed on the authenticator app.
- Next, insert the code displayed within the authenticator app into the field "Step 2" and press the SET UP TWO-FACTOR NOW button.
- Once the message "Your MFA is activated!" appears, tap the CONTINUE button to return to the Student Learning Portal login page.
- Next, insert login credentials using the Email and Password fields.
- From this point forward on all future logins, users should reference the District Reporting: Login process. Users will be prompted to enter the 6-digit number displayed within their authenticator app. To ensure security, this number will change frequently. Insert the code in the Authentication code field and then tap the VERIFY button.
Note: For additional convenience, select the "Remember me for 7 days" checkbox to bypass the authentication process for the next login. Passwords can only be reset using the "Forgot your Login and/or Password" link on the Welcome page.
