How to login to Epic Employee during Preboarding
Log into EpicEmployee during Preboarding by following these steps:
1. Go to EpicEmployee
2. Click the "Onboarding Login" button
3. Username is the email address where you receive your onboarding emails.
The password can be found in a separate email from peopleconnect@vailresorts.com. You will be asked to change your password the first time you log in.
If you can't find that email, don't worry! You can always use the "forgot password" feature on the login page to reset it!
4. Once you are logged in, look for "My Tasks" in EpicEmployee to complete your preboarding activities. Additionally, you can view your complete onboarding journey by clicking on "My Requests".
Trouble Logging In
- If you are unable to log in using the credentials given, try resetting your password using the "Forgot Password" option at the bottom of the page
- The onboarding portal is most compatible with a computer/laptop rather than a phone
- If you are still having issues, try using a different browser - Microsoft Edge is the preferred choice - if that does not work, try Internet Explorer
Password Requirements
- When resetting your password, please ensure it includes special characters (!,?,$, ECT) and a capital letter
An example would be Winter24!
Extra Tips and Tricks
- The "Forgot Password" option is only valid for 24 hours after the email is sent. If you attempt to access the link after 24 hours, it will produce an error. You will need to try the "Forgot Password" option again for a new link
- If you attempt to reset your password 3 times or more within the same day, your account will lock for 24 hours
- IT will not be able to reset your password. You will have to reset it yourself via the "Forgot Password" option. If the Forgot Password option fails and several browsers are yielding the same error, please get a screenshot showing the exact error message you are receiving so that People Connect can help troubleshoot.

Frustration with SSO Re-Route to Browser? Some functionality (including Report Time/Webclock) require completing actions in another platform, like PeopleSoft. When you click an external link, your mobile app will redirect you to your mobile browser, where you may need to complete SSO login again depending on your device settings. If this is frustrating for you, you may prefer to navigate EpicEmployee purely in your browser instead. Mobile browser can be added to your mobile phone homepage using the steps referenced above.
