Info

How will I know which format to use?

Look for prompts on the login screen that tell you which format to use.

However, a simple rule is: if the site is a Microsoft managed site with a login that looks like this, you should use the long form format (i.e. d1brown@royalroads.ca).

All others use the short form format (like d1brown) unless otherwise directed.
