Choosing a username for your account

When creating a unique username for your vision2learn account, it must be at least six characters long and can't include any spaces.

Use the following list of characters in any combination:

  • Letters (A - Z) or (a - z)
  • Numbers (0 - 9)
  • Special character:
    • At symbol ( @ )
    • Dash ( - )
    • Period ( . )
    • Plus sign ( + )
    • Underscore ( _ )

Follow this guide to create a username for your vision2learn account

  • Pick a username that you can remember. If you create a name that's unusual for you, you may not remember it the next time you log in.
  • Make it simple. Unlike your password, avoid using too many symbols. It'll slow you down when you type it in.
  • For security, don't use the same username and password combination.
  • Usernames are not case sensitive so you can't create an account with the same username but using different capitalisation.

Keeping your account secure

Password requirements

  • To help keep your account secure your password must be at least ten characters in length and contain at least one UPPERCASE letter (A-Z), one lowercase letter (a-z) and one digit (0-9).
  • You can also use spaces and other special characters in your password.
  • No leading or trailing spaces are allowed.

Follow this guide to create a secure password for your vision2learn account

  • Do use numbers, symbols and a mix of upper and lower case letters in your password. The greater the variety of characters in your password, the better.
  • Do not use common dictionary words such as "password", etc.
  • Do not use sequences such as "12345678", "abcd1234" or keyboard sequences like "qwerty".
  • Do not use your personal data as a password. This includes data such as your name, email address or username.
