You can change your password any-time and anywhere you have internet access. There are 2 easy ways to change it. This will change your login, Canvas, Office 365 (email, one drive etc) and Google passwords all at once. We need passwords that are between 8 and 16 characters and contain at least one capital (upper case) letter and one number eg Password1 or Pas5word (please don't use those).
Mac users can use the app at any time.

Using a Mac with JAMF Connect
We use JAMF Connect to log in and manage passwords on your Mac. To change it you click on the icon, , in the menu bar and choose Change Password from the options. Enter your Riverside email address and password if requested and then you will come to a screen to enter your old and new passwords. Follow the prompts and your school and laptop passwords will update. When your password expiration date is approaching, the menu bar icon will warn you in addition to receiving standard account notifications via email.
When using JAMF Connect, DO NOT change your password in by going to System Settings. If you do, JAMF Connect will helpfully change it back to match the previous network password.
Jamf Connect password changes must be done on the network account first, via Change Password in the Jamf Connect menu.
Jamf Connect will keep your Mac account's password the same as your network password. It will also update any KeyChain entries for Printers. In some cases, you may be prompted a few minutes after the original password change to re-provide the old or new password.
Dialog box prompting for login
You may occasionally have a dialog box pop up with the Jamf Connect title, requesting that you enter your email and password to keep your Mac and network accounts in sync. This may happen when the Jamf Connect app has just upgraded to a new version. If you do see this message, go ahead and log in as it requests.
