CCAC provides students with apps and programs to use in your classes, to access college services and more! To help you be successful at CCAC, you are expected to use these systems in your college journey.
CCAC NetID Account
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, CCAC 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
CCAC Email
Once you create your NetID account and you have registered for classes, you will have access to your CCAC email. The college will send all important emails to your CCAC 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 CCAC email to a personal email account. Instead, you can access your CCAC email through Outlook on the Web or download the Outlook app to your smartphone.
NOTE: As of February 2024, ITS is working to move all CCAC email accounts from NetIDusername@acd.ccac.edu to NetIDusername@ccac.edu. If you registered on or after June 12, 2024, your email address will be NetIDusername@ccac.edu. If you registered prior to June 12, 2024, your email address will be NetIDusername@acd.ccac.edu. You will be notified via your CCAC email account when your email address will change. You should review your CCAC documents to ensure you know your CCAC email address.

Recommended Computers and Laptop Loaner Program
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.
You can use the Microsoft "Help Me Device" website, 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.

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