The password given to you is case-sensitive. Please make sure that you typed in the password given to you accurately and ensure that you capitalised the correct letters.
I cannot remember the email that I submitted when I opted in for Write Edge’s WELearn programme. Can I sign up for a new account on WELearn Portal on my own using another email address?
