A new policy for non-expiring passwords went into effect Aug. 17.
This will be your DCCCD account (for example e9876543@student.dcccd.edu).
This will be your 3x4 account (for example, zyz9999@dcccd.edu).
If you have forgotten your Online Services password, and have not enrolled in the Self Service Password Reset tool, please use the Forgot/Reset My Password link in eConnect.
If you have enrolled in the Self Service Password Reset tool, you will still be able to access the tool via the eConnect menu or directly at https://aka.ms/sspr.
Along with the policy changes, password.dcccd.edu and the current process for changing and resetting passwords will be decommissioned Aug. 31.
Once the new policy goes into effect, users will be able to change and reset their passwords directly through Microsoft.
By increasing the complexity of your password, it remains secure and longer-lasting. As part of the new password policy, all users must reset their password with the new complexity rules.
Under the new policy, your password must be at least 12 characters in length and contain three of the following components:
Note: Common phrases, spaces and other special characters are not supported.
The district is implementing additional single sign-on services for students.
Once implemented, eCampus (Blackboard) will join Outlook, OneDrive, myPortal, eConnect and other district services in using the same user ID and password — your DCCCD Username.
It is recommended that you do not use Microsoft Internet Explorer or Edge browsers for eCampus.
Employees will also be required to use multi-factor authentication — when logging in to anything that uses your DCCCD Username and Microsoft login services — and while off-campus or using the DCCCD Guest Wi-Fi.
Employees will be able to choose their second authentication method, either a push notification from a mobile app or a code received by text message or phone call.
