Switch Between Student and Student Worker User and Email Accounts

Every time you clock into work, you’ll need to sign out of your regular student user account (firstname_lastname) and sign in using your student worker user account (firstname_lastname_sw).

When you clock out as a student worker and resume student work, you’ll need to sign out of your student worker user account (firstname_lastname_sw) and sign in using your regular student email account (firstname_lastname).

When you switch back and forth between your regular student and student worker user and email accounts, you may be prompted to sign into your multi-factor authentication (MFA) with Okta Verify.
