Beginning 8\/1\/22, all employees with HR\/purchasing Skyward security will be required to use Two Factor Authentication (2FA)<\/a> when signing into Skyward. This can be done through email or an authenticator application. If you only have Skyward for Employee Access, this will not impact you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
