This step-by-step guide is designed to help you seamlessly integrate Bedrock Learning into your school's Microsoft environment, enabling your colleagues and learners to log in using their Microsoft accounts.

By following the instructions below, you'll ensure that your school community can easily and efficiently access Bedrock Learning.

Check whether Single Sign-On is working

Head to our login page and click the button to log in with Office 365

​​

After following this step we find most of our schools can use Single Sign-On. Allowing your colleagues and learners to log in using this method.

 

Authenticate the use of third-party apps

If this does not work then there may be additional steps required to authenticate the use of third-party apps within your admin area.

Please follow the steps in this detailed guide below:

1. Log into your Microsoft Entra admin center > Applications > Enterprise applications

If you cannot see the Bedrock app in your list within 'All applications,' search for it in the search bar. Below is how the Bedrock Learning app will appear.
