Change Password

You can change your password in the Change Password section under My Account.

The following are the requirements for password format:

Must be between 8-20 characters long
Must be a mix of alpha-numeric characters and have at least one letter or one number. No other characters are allowed.
The password is case sensitive. It is recommended to use upper and lower case characters. Stronger passwords contain both upper and lower case characters.

Can't remember your username and/or password? You can request your username to be sent to the email address under your personal information and you can request your password to be reset.

NOTE: If you have your password reset, it is recommended you go to the change password section and change your password to something easier to remember. The password sent from a reset request is a random generated string of letters and numbers.
