An employee will receive an email notification to set up their account when an account admin adds them to a Bridge account. The Set a Password button will prompt the employee to set a password for the account. This email will also be generated when an email address has either been modified or added to an existing account that has not been set up by the employee.

Note:

• If a user profile does not include an email address, a notification cannot be generated.
• The link contained within the Account Invitation will expire 30 days after the notification was sent to the employee from Bridge.
• The content and subject line of the invitation email may differ depending on which features are enabled in your account.

If an employee has already set up their account but has forgotten their password, a password reset can be requested by the employee or sent by an account admin. The password reset notification email will be sent with a link to reset their password. Employees will receive the reset password notification email even if they are unsubscribed from email notifications.

Notes:

• Bridge passwords cannot be reset in accounts that use a Central Authentication Service (CAS). Employees who use CAS will need to contact their Bridge admin for assistance in resetting their password.
• The link contained in the password reset notification email will expire 24 hours after the request for reset has been sent to the employee.

When an employee logs into Bridge for the first time and creates a new password, the employee will receive a notification email stating the employee's password has been changed.

Note: Password change email notifications are sent to those using Bridge authentication.

An email notification will not be sent if an employee unregisters from a live training session.
