Learning Objectives
- Describe use of Office 365 in support of student learning.
Introduction
This page contains relevant links and videos to students and FCC IT services. Perhaps the biggest question students have is how to I login to FCC systems? The college uses a single user ID across all systems, which is defined here:
“FCC’s students log into PeopleSoft, myFCC, and Blackboard with a single user ID and password. Changing or resetting the password on any of these systems will automatically synchronize it for all of them.”
