How Do I Setup Account Verification Methods for My Coppell ISD Account?
Overview
Office 365 allows you to reset your password in the event you forget your password, or your password has expired, and you need to set a new password. In order to utilize this feature you must first setup account verification method(s) that Microsoft will use when you use the self-service password reset feature.
