In order to expedite the process of you connecting to the lab, we will provide you the initial password via email or when responding to your account request.  Typically creating a new account results in an email being sent to you.  However, your email address needs added to the whitelist before you will begin to receive these.  Once this is in place, you can request a password reset by clicking on the following link:  https://www.elabs.testafss.net/Website2/forgotPassword or https://www.testafss.net/WebsiteV/forgotPassword, depending on which lab you are working in.
