Faculty and Staff QuickStart

 

Purpose:

After you are hired, a network account is created for you to log in to the myUHD faculty/staff portal, email, Canvas, and your office computer.

How to Fix:

 

  1. Network Account

    Some services on campus are under Duo 2FA (two-factor authentication) protection. When prompted with a Duo 2FA login screen, you must provide a second factor of authentication. You may use your cellular device for a push notification using the Duo app or text. Explore all Duo 2FA options at Duo (Two-Factor Authentication).

  2. Electronic Classrooms

    The general labs are equipped with state-of-the-art technology and a standard suite of software. This will ensure your computing experience is consistent no matter where you choose to work. See the lab hours on the following page for S800, C300, and B200, B12.353. For more information:
