About Initial Passwords

The initial password is a temporary password automatically issued by Teachme Biz for the first login or when resetting the password.
They are used in the following cases:

  • When a new user invited to a group logs in for the first time
  • When an existing user whose password has been reset by an administrator logs in for the first time after the reset

The initial password will be sent in the following email.

  • When invited to a group: [Teachme Biz]Welcome to Teachme Biz!
  • When an administrator resets the password: [Teachme Biz] *IMPORTANT* Login password for group "[Group Display name]" changed.

As part of our security enhancement measures, changing the initial password became mandatory.
This change meant that continued use of the initial password would no longer be possible.
