Your login details are used for all college systems such as Teams and email.

Create your password using the instructions on this page.

After you have created your password, you will get a message that says 'Let's keep your account secure' - at that point make sure that you use our 'Microsoft Authenticator guide' to set up your account security, which is in the 'Next step after creating your password' section below.
Your college username and your first-time password
Your college username will be your college email address, which will look like this:
Your student ID number@student.stcg.ac.uk
Example: if your student ID number was 123456 the username would be 123456@student.stcg.ac.uk
You can find your student ID number on your college ID card or on any college enrolment emails / letters.
Your first-time password uses the following format: PassDDMMYYYY
DDMMYYYY will be your date of birth, so for example, if you were born on 12th April 2008 your password would be Pass12042008 You must use a capital P and then lower case for the other letters.
When you sign in for the first time you will be asked to 'Update your password' and this is when you choose your new password.
Choosing your new password
Your current password is your first-time password.
To enter a new password, follow these rules.
