To create a teacher account with Project STEM, your school must sign up to use the platform. If you are interested in signing up, please reach out to info@projectstem.org and we'll be happy to get you started!
Once you have provided your school information and we have confirmed your status as a teacher or administrator at that school, our team will send you a welcome email containing a School ID shared with any other personnel at your school as well as both an Educator ID and Educator Passphrase.
To set up your account, navigate to Project STEM's signup page and either create a username and password or use one of the available Single Sign-On methods.
Next, you will need to verify your account. If you signed up with an email/password combination, you will receive a link in your inbox. If you're using a Single Sign-On service, you will simply authenticate your SSO account.
Once your account is confirmed, you will proceed to complete your account setup! Here you will need to choose your account type (if you are teaching a course, choose "teacher," as admin accounts are read-only), list your first and last name, and enter your PS School and Educator IDs, followed by your Educator Passphrase.
You will also be asked to complete a Teacher Registration Form. This provides us with information about where you're teaching, and how you plan to use our courses.
If you are not a registered teacher at your school, please reach out to support@projectstem.org with contact information for an administrator at your school who can confirm that you need access to our courses.
Finally, you will be prompted to schedule an onboarding call. This is a great way to learn about our courses and our platform, and ask our team any questions you may have.
Once this is done, your account is up and running! Student courses and Professional Development courses will automatically be added to your dashboard, and you can start looking around right away.
If you have any questions or concerns while setting up your account, feel free to reach out to support@projectstem.org.
Co-Teacher Accounts
If another teacher at your school wants to set up a Project STEM account, you can share your credentials with them to create their account. The system will automatically give them their own Educator ID once they've entered your credentials to create their account.
If you need to set up a co-teacher, please email our support team at support@projectstem.org for assistance. In your email, please include the other teacher's name and email address, and let us know specifically to which course(s) they should have access.
