Frequently Asked Questions

If you are asked to change your password, you will need to choose a new password, next time you log in.

The LDCSB requires strong passwords to help protect users and their information.

 

It is important to update all your devices and the applications with the new password. Attempting to access an account with an incorrect password can cause your account to be locked out. If you are locked out and can't log in, please call your school and leave a message for the teacher to have your password reset

Student Help Guides: Documentation & Videos. Note: You must log in using an LDCSB account to access.

The Board has no way of guaranteeing that students who travel will have access during their travels outside of Canada.

To combat phishing e-mails and online identity theft Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is required when travelling.  MFA is a way to protect users by prompting you to confirm that the computer or device you are using to access your board Office 365 account is trusted by you. This is done using an Authenticator application installed on one of your devices.  

 

Students need to be aware that if you are planning to travel outside of Canada or the US, you will need to set up MFA before you leave Canada to access your Board e-mail or any sites (like the VLE) that use it to "authenticate" or grant you access. It cannot be set up outside of Canada.

 
​For a full explanation of MFA and how to set it up, be sure to consult the following:
