Changing My Moodle Password

IMPORTANT: Your computer account password and your student email password are linked. This means if you change your password for one of the accounts it will automatically change the password for the other account. If you are a new student, please change your password as soon as possible.

On-site Students: If you need assistance logging in please contact the help desk at one of the campuses or email: itshelp@selkirk.ca.
Distance Students please email: itshelp@selkirk.ca.

Changing your password from the Moodle site:

From the breadcrumb bar, right side, use the drop down menu to select "Preferences".

    2. using the Webmail system
2. Setup Responses (security questions): Important - required for password reset when forgotten.
