Personal Information
Too long didn't read (TLDR)
Keep your contact info current — it's how Standards & Training and your POC reach you. Most fields you can update yourself; legal name changes require Standards & Training.
What you can update yourself
- Mailing address — home or preferred mailing address
- Social Security Number — your SSN
- Phone number — primary contact number
- Emergency contacts — preferred contact in an emergency
- Email address — used for login and all portal notifications
Use a personal email address
Your email is your login username. Use a personal address — not an agency-issued one — so you retain access if you leave your agency.
How to update your information
- Log in to the Acadis portal
- Click Manage Profile in the upper right corner
- Click the field you want to update
- Enter the new information and click Save
Changes take effect immediately and are reflected in your person record automatically.
What you cannot change yourself
- Legal name — requires supporting documentation; must be processed by Standards & Training
- Training records — read-only; your POC is responsible for reporting completed training
For corrections to either of these, contact your agency's POC or email acadis-support@dps.ms.gov.
Name discrepancies
If your legal name in Acadis doesn't match your current legal name (after a marriage or court-ordered change), email acadis-support@dps.ms.gov.
