FACTS now requires Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) for all non-student users when logging into FACTS SIS through their online accounts.

Please note that MFA is not required for student logins.

FACTS recommends using a free authenticator app such as Authy, Microsoft Authenticator, or Google Authenticator. Users may also choose to receive a verification code via email each time they log in.

If you have any questions regarding this process, please contact FACTS Customer Support at 866-441-4637. I have also attached a flyer that provides additional information and step-by-step guidance.

Thank you for your attention to this important update.

Sincerely,
