Using Self Service Password Reset Portal to change your Password
Now that you have setup SSPR, you can use Office 365 to change your DPS Network Account password. If you have not setup SSPR yet, please see SSPR-Registration article.
The SSPR Portal relies on the authentication email address and phone number setup during registration. If you do not have access to the email address or phone number that SSPR was configured with, you will not be able to use this tool and must call the helpdesk.
Changing your password with ‘Forgot My Password’
1. Go to one of the various 365 Login portals (https://portal.office.com, https://www.office.com) and click the Sign In button.
2. Enter your email address. Then, click on "Forgot my password".
3. On the “Get back into your account” page, complete the captcha prompt then click “Next”.
4. After successfully completing the Captcha, you will be prompted to recover your account using the Authentication Email or the Authentication Phone method. Click on the Email to send a verification email to the address specified, or on the Phone Recovery options. You will first have to re-input the phone number you have registered to do a phone verification. When prompted, enter the code from the text or follow the voice instructions on the phone call.
5. After you have verified with either your phone or email address, you will then be taken to password change screen. Please follow our Password Policy when setting up your new password, then click the "Finish button" to finalize the password change.
6. Your new password should be available for immediate use on Office 365, and will be available within a few minutes for use with our local services (such as signing into a computer while on a DPS network and Outlook online).
