Echo360 Getting Started

New to Echo360? 

If you are new to Echo360 sign up for a introductory workshop register at svsu.edu/workshops. After the training, you will receive an email invitation (24 hours minimum), "You've been invited to create an Echo360 account" click "COMPLETE REGISTRATION".

You are redirected to create a password for Echo360.

The password you create can be the same as or different from your SVSU password, as long as it meets the Echo360 password specifications (listed below).
NOTE: Your Echo360 password is not synced with your SVSU login credentials.

Echo360 requires passwords of a certain strength in order to secure their system. Here are some tips for generating a usable password:

• DO use multiple words, foreign words, or an uncommon phrase - include letters/numbers/characters to improve strength
• Avoid single dictionary words (ch@racter substitutions don't h3lp either - too easy to guess)
• Avoid alphanumeric or keyboard sequences such as abcd, 1234, qwerty, 09876
• Avoid your name or any location or dates associated with you (including recent/future years)
