As part of UWM’s new digital identity experience, beginning the weekend of Nov. 12, you may need to enable additional security verification to your account. When you log into Microsoft 365 or any UWM service (PAWS, Canvas, etc.), you will be prompted to verify your account and confirm your identity (such as install Authenticator app, enter a number for text messages, enter an alternate email or create security questions).
This update will enable you to reset your UWM account password anywhere and anytime without the need to contact the Help Desk services. This can be done when you have forgotten your password, your password has expired or you want to change your current password.
