MyValley Account Setup Instructions

Step 1: Create Your MyValley Self-Service Portal Account

  1. Access www.kvcc.edu/new
  2. Enter your Kalamazoo Valley e-mail address: username@mail.kvcc.edu
  3. Enter your New Account Code (NAC) to verify your identity
  4. Create your password following the listed criteria

Step 2: Setup Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)

MFA is an additional level of security requiring you to enter a code sent to you when logging in.

  1. Click on the MyValley logo at www.kvcc.edu to log in.
  2. Enter your Kalamazoo Valley e-mail address and the password you created in step 1.
  3. Choose the type of MFA you wish to use on your mobile phone.
    1. Recommended: Download an MFA app from your mobile phone app store
      1. Kalamazoo Valley uses Microsoft Authenticator for MFA
      2. You may use another MFA app if you prefer
    2. Option: Receive a code via text message or call to your mobile phone. (Note: Due to bad reception in some areas on campus, you may not receive texts or calls.)
  4. Follow the Microsoft prompts to set up MFA.
    1. If you will not be using the Microsoft Authenticator app, choose “Use a different verification option” when prompted.
    2. You will need to scan a QR code for the app or enter your mobile phone number.

Contact the IT technical staff at it@kvcc.edu or go to the Student Computer Lab for help with any questions, if you forget your phone or get a new phone. Please include your Valley ID Number in your email or bring photo ID with you when you visit the Student Computer Lab.
