Microsoft 365 Initial Setup

For the first time setup of your Microsoft 365 account you will have to set up 2 Factor Authentication. This will help keep your account secure and allow you to change your own password should you forget it. It helps us keep valuable information safe following GDPR rules. Follow the guide below or YouTube video for help. 

1.Visit the district website: www.rotherhamscouts.org

2.Hover over the Volunteer Support button at the top. 

3.Scroll down to District Emails and click it. 

3a. Alternatively save this link as a favourite: https://login.microsoftonline.com/?whr=rotherhamscouts.org

4.Login using your District Email and Password. 

5.Your email will be your [email protected] (Forgotten password can easily be reset, look at the FAQ’s on the website) 

6.You may be asked to change your password at this point. 

7.Set up two factor authentication using your mobile phone number or personal email address (this is safe for you to do and acts as a second layer of security) 

8.After that, you should see the home screen where you can select the different Microsoft Office Online Apps.
