Changing your email address

Update the email address you use to sign in to your PBLWorks account.

Before you start

Your PBLWorks account is tied to your email address. The email you use decides what you can open, because your school or district gives you access to apps like TEACH through your work email.

  • New email at the same school? Nothing changes. You'll have the same access you have now. Follow the steps below.

  • Moved to a new school or district? Sign in with your new work email. You'll have whatever access your new school or district provides. If your new school or district has TEACH, ask your TEACH administrator for its registration link. If you need help with your old account, contact us at help.pblworks.org.

You can change your email in TEACH, or on your PBLWorks account page if you don't use TEACH.
