How Do I Get My SAC User ID and Password for ADAM?

If you are a District Assessment Coordinator (DAC), your ADAM account will be created by MDOE. Refer to How do I get my DAC user ID and password for ADAM?

If you are a School Assessment Coordinator (SAC) or Technology Coordinator (TC) your account will usually be created by your DAC or another coordinator at your school.

Welcome Email

When your DAC creates your account in ADAM, you should receive an automated welcome email from [e-mail] that contains a temporary link. Check your spam folder if a welcome email you are expecting has not been received.

From: ADAM Assessment System ([e-mail])
Subject: Your account information for the ADAM assessment management system

Select the link in the welcome email to gain access to ADAM. You will be asked to create a new password for your account. Please note that the password link in the welcome email can only be used once. The email link invitation expires after 1 week (7 days).

Did Not Receive Your Welcome Email

If you did not receive your SAC or Technology Coordinator Welcome Email from ADAM, follow these steps.

Step 1:  Verify Your Account was Created

Contact your DAC and verify they can find your account in ADAM, also verify your email address.  If your account does not exist in ADAM, your DAC needs to add it.  If your account exists but you have not received your Welcome Email...move on to Step 2.

Step 2:  Request a Forgot Password Email from ADAM

1. Navigate in your browser to www.adamexam.com
2. Choose the link under the Login button called 'Forgot password?'
   
3. Enter the email address you verified in Step 1 and press the Send Reset Email.
4. You will receive an email from [e-mail] that contains a temporary URL.
5. Click the link in the welcome email to gain access to ADAM. You will be asked to create a new password for your account. Please note that the password link in the welcome email can only be used once. The email link expires after 24 hours.
