Families using Beast Academy Online (BA Online) access different areas of the platform from either their Parent or Student Accounts. For those already signed in to their Parent Account, we provide a couple of quick and simple ways to switch to their student's account without the hassle of signing out and back in with different credentials.
This guide covers:
Note:
- Your student's account is different than your Parent Account. Learn more about the different account types.
- If you switch to your student's account to explore and play BA Online, you'll impact their progress.
- Returning to your Parent Account will require signing out of the Student Account and signing back in to your Parent Account.
You can confirm that you're signed in to your Parent Account by verifying that your email address is visible at the top right of the page.
Note: If you see Sign In at the top right of the page instead of your email address, that means that you're signed out of your Parent Account and your student can sign in directly using their credentials.
From the Parent Home page
1. Select Student
Navigate to beastacademy.com and select the student whose account you'd like to switch to.
Note:
- Students without a completed account set up or whose subscription has expired will appear red and display an exclamation point where their avatar would be. Selecting this will take you to either the Student Account setup process or the subscription reactivation process. You'll need to complete the process before the student can access BA Online.
- Selecting your own icon will take you to your Parent Reports page.
Once you've selected the student that you'd like to sign in as:
- You'll be signed out of your Parent Account and your student will be signed in to their account.
- In order to access the pages within your Parent Account after you switch, your student will need to sign out and you'll need to sign back in to your Parent Account.
