Vol. 4 – Tuesday, Nov. 9

Activate your account

All staff are invited to activate their ctcLink account using myaccount.ctcLink.us and following the prompts. A How-Do-I Activate My Account guide is now posted on the website. 

Note: those who activated accounts in the SVX practice site prior to ctcLink go-live must reactivate. Your ctcLink ID will be the same as you used in the test environment, but please verify it again in the pop-up window when you reactivate. Faculty will receive activation instructions on Nov. 12 and students on Nov. 17.

You may notice discrepancies in your personal details –  do not change your personal information in ctcLink before Dec. 1. Please allow HR until Dec. 1 to make corrections.  

Support Structure

If questions come up, start with the “How do I?” section of the website. Common first day questions include:   

  • How do I activate my account? (answer: check the How Do I section of the website)  
  • Is there a guide to tell me how to do my job?  
    • This is a self-learning situation. There are tools to point you in the right direction, but each of us needs to put on our detective hat and go digging. If you haven’t done the Canvas coursesyou will have a lot more questions. That’s the place to start, then the ctcLink Reference Center

If you still have problems, please contact the Staff Support Specialists virtually or in person. If none of the above resolve your question, a ticketing system is in place to route issues to the right person, and the support specialist can help you open one.
