Getting started

Creating an account & signing in

How to register for Edustories, complete the required Profile Setup, sign in, stay signed in, and sign out.

Verified June 23, 2026

To write case reports, save items, rate, and comment, you need an Edustories account. Browsing the public library is open to everyone, but the personal tools require signing in.

Registering

Creating an account is quick — you provide an email and a password and accept the terms.

Open the Register page and fill in your Email and a Password.

Tick the box to agree with the application usage terms (this is required).

Submit the form. Your account is created and you are signed in straight away.

There is no email-verification step. You can start using Edustories immediately after registering — there's no confirmation email to wait for.

If you enter an email that already has an account, you'll be told "Account with this email already exists". If you already have an account, use the Login link instead.

Profile Setup (first time only)

The first time you sign in after registering, a short Profile Setup appears with the note "Before we start, we need a few details". It has two steps and must be completed before you continue.

  1. Personal data & country — Enter your name (with optional titles before and after), an optional date of birth, and your country (required).
  2. Profession & experience — Choose one or more professions (for example special educator, teacher, teaching assistant, psychologist), or use the Other option to type your own. At least one profession is required. Also enter your years of experience.

You can change all of these later in your profile settings. See Settings.

Signing in

Returning users sign in on the Login page with their Email and Password, then select Login. If the details don't match, you'll see a single "Invalid email or password" message for security.

You may also be prompted to log in via a pop-up when you try an action that requires an account — for example rating, saving, or commenting on a case report.

Forgot your password?

Use the Forgot your password? link on the Login page. Enter the email associated with your account and press Send reset link — if an account exists for that address, you'll receive an email with a link to set a new password (check your spam folder too). The link opens a page where you choose and confirm the new password, and you can sign in with it right away.

Staying signed in

Once you're signed in, Edustories keeps your session alive for you. Your sign-in refreshes automatically in the background, so you normally stay logged in across visits for up to 30 days without re-entering your password. If your session can't be renewed (for example after a long time away), you'll simply be asked to log in again.

Signing out

To end your session, use Log out. This signs you out and clears your saved session on the device. If you were on a personal page at the time, you'll be returned to the home page.

Deleting your account

You can delete your account yourself: in Settings, the Danger zone section has a Delete account button. Deletion is confirmed with your password and is irreversible — it permanently removes your account and the data associated with it (your stories including comments, ratings and interventions, AI assistant conversations, trainings and simulator sessions, and simulator groups you own). See Privacy & your data for details, or contact [email protected] with any data request.
