Salt Lake Community College offers faculty, staff and active students a license for Office 365. These two license types provide access to key applications, storage and processes that are instrumental for the role each take at the college.
When a new student begins classes or when a new hire (faculty or staff) begins work, they will be assigned specific licenses during the enrollment/on-boarding process.
This Knowledge Article covers what each license provides, how to access the online environment and where to go for additional support.
