myNHDOE - DO’S AND DON’TS - Local Security Administrator

• DO encourage users to keep their myNHDOE accounts active and updated

  • Login every couple of months at least and regularly update the password

  • Make sure a primary and alternate email address are used and are accessible by the user

• DO NOT create “shared” myNHDOE accounts

  • myNHDOE accounts should be unique to each user and should not be shared

  • Shared accounts are a security risk and potentially violate the law, particularly with regards to student and staff privacy

• DO regularly review staff access to myNHDOE systems and disable unnecessary or outdated roles

  • This should be done at least quarterly

• Educator” access is automatically assigned to a user once they have gone through the New Applicant process in EIS. It should never be assigned or disabled by the user’s employer

  • Educator access to EIS should also never be restricted to a particular SAU, district, or school

DO request clarification on appropriate user roles from the DOE program areas in charge of each system

• Each system is maintained and supported by its own program within the NHDOE (e.g., EIS

• belongs to Credentialing; NHSEIS belongs to Special Education)

• myNHDOE and i4see staff do not support these systems and therefore cannot provide guidance on the appropriate roles to assign users

• Questions about GMS access should be addressed to the program area in charge of the particular grant or funding stream in question (e.g., questions about GMS access for a user accessing the Title I grant should be addressed to the Title I office)
