Setting up SAML SSO into Houghton Mifflin Harcourt platforms

You can now access your Houghton Mifflin Harcourt platforms (ThinkCentral, Ed: your friend in learning, MyHRW, and SAM) via Clever using a technology called SAML SSO.

Setting up a SAML SSO connection requires a couple extra steps. Once complete, the login experience will be seamless for your students and educators.

Here’s what to expect after you request an HMH platform via your Clever dashboard:

1. Clever (hmh-requests@clever.com) will send you an email within 48 business hours requesting a couple pieces of information;
2. Loop in your HMH Sales Representative and let them know you’d like to set up a SAML SSO connection via Clever;
3. Clever and HMH will work together to configure the connection and reach out with questions as needed;
4. You’ll be notified by the Clever team when the setup is complete.

Please note that this may take a bit longer than other SSO connections, so make sure to get started earlier rather than later!
