How do I become a verified teacher?

If you are looking for information about how verification works, the data verified teachers get access to and Grok's approach to student privacy see our guide What is teacher verification?

1. Create a teacher account

To create your account you can either login via SAML/SSO (Check out this guide to do so), or you can create an account by heading to our registration page

2. Add your school or institution to your account

After logging in/registering, head to your account settings by going to the top right of the screen and click on your name -> click "Account" -> click "Institutions" on the left hand side. Once there you can add your institution by searching for it in our list, or if your information was filled out already (available by using SSO) you can immediately move to step 3.

If your institution doesn't appear, and you are an Australian or Aotearoa New Zealand teacher please email us at help@grokacademy.org

3. Request verification at your institution

In your account settings, click "Request verification" for your school or institution. Note that only users who are registered as a Teacher at their school/institution can request verification.

If you are a tertiary educator looking to get teacher verification, please get in contact with our customer support team to help you further.

What happens next?

We take the privacy of students very seriously. After you request verification, you will receive an email with the next steps. Once you have received this, ask your admin/HR team or an already verified colleague to contact us or send through a link to your staff profile on your school website. For details on what data verified teachers can see, please see our Privacy Policy.

You'll receive an email once your verification has been processed.

What can I do as a verified teacher?

Verified teachers can sign up students, assign students work eg courses and competitions, and manage student accounts at your school. You’ll also receive free access to all of our materials, including problem solutions and teacher notes!
