Access Tech Admin

Districts that are new to Benchmark Universe receive a username, password, and realm for the district’s main technical contact to access Tech Admin as a Technical Administrator. Once logged in, the Technical Administrator can create District Administrator or School Administrator accounts as needed, or simply view the user accounts created through a data sync.

Every district is assigned a unique realm which is used to ensure that each district’s data and access to Benchmark Universe remains separate from each other. For example, Sesame Street School District could be assigned ‘sssd’ or ‘sesame’ as their realm. Tech Support discusses choosing a realm with the district representative(s) during the Onboarding process.

Sign into Tech Admin

Administrators can sign into Tech Admin if the credentials were provided by Tech Support or if admin accounts were manually created with a username and password. A District Administrator whose account was created via data sync but needs access to Tech Admin because he/she is tasked with managing rosters can use a passthrough from Benchmark Universe.

  1. Go to https://techadmin.benchmarkuniverse.com to access the sign in page.
  2. Type your district’s realm in the Realm box.
  3. Type your username in the Username box.
  4. Type your password in the Password box.
  5. Press Enter or click Sign in.

If you do not know what your Realm, Username, or Password is, please use the Contact Us button at the bottom right to submit a ticket to our Technical Success team.
