Employee Password Tool

The Employee Password Tool is the recommended method for all CBE staff and contractors to change or reset their passwords. This tool is not for students.


On your first sign-in to a CBE system, you'll be prompted to set up recovery options. We highly recommend adding both a mobile phone number and a personal email address. Keeping these details current will allow you to quickly reset your password if needed.
