Welcome to ctcLink
All faculty are invited to activate their ctcLink account using myaccount.ctcLink.us and following the prompts. A how-to guide is now posted online.
Here’s what to do first:
- Activate your ctcLink account: Step-by-step instructions are available on the Faculty How Do I…?page.(Select the accordion box for Account Activation.).
- Verify Your Courses in ctcLink: Faculty members, once you have activated your account, you are encouraged to verify your courses in ctcLink. If you do not see a course you are expecting to see attached to your name, please contact your division office.
- Update Direct Deposit & Emergency Contact – but nothing else! 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.
- If you encounter technical problems while trying to activate your account, please contact the IT Helpdesk. Be sure to tell them if you work at multiple colleges.
- If you forget your ctcLink ID number, use the ID lookup tool.
Attention: Faculty who work at other colleges
If you work at a college already using ctcLink, there is no need to activate your account again – it is the same account.
Students will receive activation instructions on Nov. 17. Note: Student employees who activate their accounts this week as employees also see (and activate) their student self-service. All other students will be invited to activate their ctcLink account starting Nov. 17.

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