MyBucks Faculty/Staff Portal
MyBucks (Portal) is your one-stop-shop for access to systems and information for Bucks faculty and staff. Your login to MyBucks also provides you with access to the Student portal pages, so you can see what our students see. MyBucks uses your active directory login to grant you access.
MyBucks provides direct single-signon access to:
- Workday
- Office365 Applications including email and Calendar
It also provides quick access to Canvas, other instructional systems, numerous applications, College announcements, documents, team sites, and more.
Office 365
All Bucks Faculty and Staff are provided with Office365 accounts which open access to a variety of Office365 applications including web versions of Outlook, Word, Excel, and Powerpoint. Note that Bucks students are provided with Office365 accounts under the "live.bucks.edu" domain. These accounts give them access to Outlook as well as the Office 365 applications.
Canvas Learning Management System
The Canvas learning management system uses your regular active directory login and password. However, instructor accounts on Canvas are set up by request only; contact Online Learning at 215-968-8052 for details on how to request an account.
Ellucian Colleague/WebUI
Your password for Colleague is managed through ITS.
Your Colleague UI account automatically grants you access to all mnemonics and applications for which you are authorized. Your supervisor must approve all requests for access to Colleague.
Login Assistance
You can reset or change your password at any time by clicking on Forgot Password on the Bucks Identity signin page.
