Passwords

Password management is critical in order to protect your personal information and any sensitive data (e.g, patient records, student files, etc), that you access.


Create a password that will be accepted by all UCSD systems

Read the ACMS Passwords page External Site / New Window for guidelines to select your password, the best frequency to change your password as well as why strong passwords are important.

Changing your passwords

If you want to change your passwords, please follow the steps outlined below. Since the AD Password rules are very strict, it is important that you first complete that process. Once you have successfully picked an AD password, you can change your MedEd Evaluation System password to match.

  • AD password change: http://acs.ucsd.edu/account-tools/gpasswd.shtml External Site / New Window

  • MedEd Evaluation System password change:
    1. Log into the CoursEval system: http://meded-eval.ucsd.edu External Site / New Window Use your old password.*
    2. On the blue menu bar across the top of the window, click on the “Other” pull-down menu option and select the Change Password item.
    3. Enter your password twice and click Submit to sync your MedEd password to your AD password.
      * NOTE: If you do not remember your CoursEval account information, click the "Problem logging in? Click here" link at the bottom of the Login page.  Input your UCSD email address and your password will be sent to that email address.
