Description
** This app is for employees only and will not work for Pearson’s students and educators accessing Pearson’s learning apps **
Pearson Employee Authenticator provides employees, contractors, and partners with a safer, more secure way to verify their identity when they log in to their Pearson myCloud account.
It uses Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) – your username and password, plus a touch or security code – to verify it’s you when you log into your myCloud account.
Once registered, it is simple and fast to use.
You can install the app on either your Pearson-managed or personal device.

Permissions required:
Camera access: to scan QR codes for MFA registration
