Please follow the steps outlined below to set up 2-Factor authentication on your Champlain account.
1. Sign in
Log into your Champlain email account. Once logged in, navigate to the link below:
https://myaccount.google.com
You can also reach this page from any Google website with your account logged in. Simply click the profile icon in the top right, then click "manage your google account"
2. Security Settings
On the My Account page, click Security on the left side.
3. Scroll to 2-Step Verification
Locate the 2-Step Verification link, under the "How you Sign in to Google" section, then click on it:
4. Get Started
Click "Get Started" at the bottom to begin the setup process.
5. Password
You will be prompted for your Champlain account password. Please re-enter it to continue.
6. Verification
If you have already added a phone number to your account, you might be prompted to receive a verification code. This is not the 2-step process, but it looks similar.
7. Setup
Confirm that the number pre-filled (if present) is the one you would like to use to receive the verification code. Select which option best fits, whether you want a text message or a phone call as well.
8. Confirm that it works
Type in the code you receive in the text message to confirm the process works. You can exclude the G- and just enter the 6 digit numerical code.
9. Turn on
After confirming, click the button to "turn on" 2-step verification.
10. Done!
You will be returned to a page similar to the one you were at towards the beginning of this process. The setup is complete when you see a green checkmark, followed by "on since __" listed next to the 2-step verification section.
