Your NetID Account is a specific username and password that you will use to log into CCAC's applications and systems, such as MyCCAC, CCAC Self-Service, Academic Email and more. It is different from the email/account you used to apply to CCAC.

Creating Your CCAC Account 
Resetting you password on your CCAC User Account

Once you create your NetID account, you will have access to your CCAC email. The college will send all important emails to your academic email as long as you are a student. This includes emails from the deans, registrar, financial aid, student life and engagement and ITS.

It is important that you check your email regularly. You should not forward your academic to a personal email account. Instead, you can access your email through Outlook on the Web or download the Outlook app to your smartphone.

Recommended Devices

CCAC recommends computers (Laptops or Desktops) that have an operating system of Windows or MacOS. It is not recommended to use ChromeOS/Chromebook or Windows S-Mode. Many applications are not compatible with ChromeOS/Chromebooks. It is also not recommended to use an iPad or Android tablet as your main device, as these are app-based devices and have smaller viewing screens. 

Use this link to help you decide what type of computer to purchase. Please note, depending on your major (CIT, Engineering, etc.), you may need a higher performing device to complete your assignments.

Computer Resources

Students can also use the designated computers on campus or at a center to do their classwork, research or print a document.

CCAC is offering a Student Loaner Laptop Program, which gives students the opportunity to borrow a laptop. Devices may be borrowed on a semester basis and students can keep their device(s) as long as they are enrolled at CCAC. Students can reach out to the Dean of Students Office through the Online Dean Form for more information about the Loaner Laptop Program.

Applications are submitted through the Loaner Laptop Request Form and approved on a first come, first serve basis, as long as devices are available. If approved, students may check out their devices at the campus library of their choosing during the pickup window (similarly to the way you check out a book at the library).
