FYIIDAM REGISTRATION & ULTRANET ACCESS
IDAM (Identity Access Management) is the way that your identity is authenticated and you gain access into the Ultranet. You can only complete IDAM Registration at school. You MUST register for IDAM before you can access the Ultranet. IDAM registration only needs to be completed ONCE.
(Craigieburn Primary is still to be deployed for the Ultranet)http://idam.education.vic.gov.au/firstuse and follow the instructions using your teacher number (same as Edumail email access) and your NEW COMPLEX 7 password.Once you have completed IDAM registration you will be able to access the Ultranet. http://www.ultranet.vic.edu.au and use your teacher number and NEW COMPLEX 7 password.
