YISD EmpCenter Password & Login Guide
Created by: YISD Service Desk
Last Updated: February 2026
Overview
EmpCenter now uses Single Sign-on (SSO) for all employee access. This means staff must sign in using their district email address and their Microsoft 365 password
Because EmpCenter authentication is now fully integrated with Microsoft, password resets must be completed through Microsoft’s password reset tools.
If an employee cannot reset their Microsoft password online, they must complete in-person identity verification either at the Service Desk OR at their campus with designated staff.
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Access the EmpCenter Portal
- Log in Using SSO
-
- Enter your full district email address
- Enter your Microsoft password
- Complete MFA (multi-factor authentication) if prompted
Note: you no longer use Employee ID or a standalone EmpCenter password. Everything is handled through Microsoft account authentication.
- Resetting You Password
Since EmpCenter now relies on Microsoft for authentication, resetting your password must be done via the Microsoft Security Info portal:
Go to: https://mysignins.microsoft.com/security-info
From there, you can:
- Reset or change your password
- Update authentication methods
- Manage MFA options
You must have access to your recovery methods (phone/email/app) to complete the reset
- If You Cannot Reset Your Password Online
If you are unable to change your password through Microsoft due to:
- Locked account
- No recovery method access
- Authentication method failure
…then in-person verification is required.
- YISD Service Desk - Present valid identification, such as your district badge or a government-issued ID, to complete the identity verification process.
- Authorized Campus Personnel - Present valid identification to designated staff, including:
- Secretary
- Librarian
- Instruction Technology Support (ITS)
- After Resetting Your Microsoft Password
Once your Microsoft password is successfully updated:
-
-
- Return to the EmpCenter SSO page
- Log in with your district email and your new Microsoft Password
-
