Login to Canvas
https://canvas.uidaho.edu/
Do not let your browser auto-fill additional characters beyond https://canvas.uidaho.edu/

To authenticate, use your UofI email address (ending with uidaho.edu). If you have more than one UofI email address--regardless of which one has been used to authenticate into Canvas--you will see both classes you teach (if you teach) and classes you are taking as a student.

DUO, a Multi-Factor Authentication System used by the University of Idaho, is required during the Canvas login process.

Visit Account Management to change your password. Review the process to Reset Your UofI Account Password. After changing your password, it takes at least 5 minutes and can be up to 10 minutes before the new password fully works.
