Education

Once users know that LastPass will soon be made available to them, help them understand how to get started with their new password manager and single sign-on solution. We recommend using a combination of the below resources or integrating them with your standard IT training programs.

Step #1: Send your users a Welcome email with helpful resources

Welcome Email Template (post-rollout)
Use our Welcome email template to send your employees that guide your employees from the beginning of their journey once LastPass has been rolled out.

Step #2: Leave educational handouts on employees' desks

LastPass Security Guide
A handout you can use to explain the LastPass security model and why employees can trust it.
End User Desk Reference Guide
A handout you can print to share during trainings or leave on employees' desks.

Step #3: Leverage our training course

Attend a free LastPass training

You can learn how to use LastPass to help you to log in to your work apps and manage your usernames and passwords. We've created a very simple but robust training portal where your employees can learn about the key features of LastPass by attending a live training, viewing a recorded training, and/or using a self-paced tutorial.

Step #4: Show your users how LastPass works

Important: Advise your users to install the LastPass web browser extension and log in (at least once).
This is important for a few reasons:
  • Allows your users to use some recovery options (SMS recovery or reverting to an old password) if they ever forget or need to reset their Master Password.
  • Allows your LastPass Business admin to reset your users' Master Password (if the policy is enabled) if they ever forget to or need to reset their Master Password.
  • Creates a snapshot of your users' Vault data in the form of an encrypted, locally stored, cached file.
  • Automatically generates a Sharing Key so that your users can create and use shared folders.
