1. Signing-in, Access & Billing

To protect your school's ManageBac+ data and your class data, we recommend for admins to create Password that are hard to guess and generally easy to remember. Feel free to use any suggested passwords or random passwords generated by your browser, or create your own.

A pass phrase of 3 or 4 random words with spaces in between could be considered hard to guess but relatively easy to remember. We do not recommend to save your password to any browser on computers that are not your personal devices.

Each admin will see personalised information on the Dashboard based on Year Groups, Classes and Groups they belong to.
