Network Account for the New Student       faq    glossary

Your Algonquin Network account allows you to use the College computers, the internet and the academic systems for your courses. Get it now. Or read on for more information.

Getting It -When you enroll in a course or program that requires network access, an IT fee is added to your tuition and a network account is created. If the course or program you are registered for does not have an IT fee, you may opt-in and pay the IT fee to get a network account. You must be a current student to receive a network account. You will have the same username as long as you are enrolled at the College. If you need assistance contact ITS.

Note: There are a few courses that use special temporary accounts. You will be notified if this has been arranged for you. Your teacher will provide the username and password. Some services are not available with these special accounts.

Note: Your network account is only activated when the
semester or course begins.

Accessing It - Once the semester starts you can begin using the account. To get your username and password you visit the ACSIS system and click on "Network Account Info " on the left menu. You will use that username and password to log onto every system in the College - except ACSIS.

Step 1. Get your 9 digit student number, usually starts with 040 and it can be found on your student card or any mail the College sent you.

Step 2. Log onto ACSIS to get your network username and password. Then, once in, click on "Network Account Info" on the upper left menu.

Format - Your username will have the first four letters of your last name and the four digits. See below. For John Smith. your email address might be smit0000@algonquincollege.com. Your first password will be yA then several digits (ie yA3248484). Notice that the systems are case sensitive.

             

Deleting the Account

As soon as your course is over the account will be deleted. The following exceptions apply:

  • If you withdraw from a course early the account will be deleted at that time
  • If you are enrolled in a full time daytime program you may have access to your account during the summer vacation and for one semester after you graduate.
  • Unfortunately, there is no way to keep the account beyond the normal deletion date. The account is deleted and all associated data found on the various servers is deleted with it. Because of this it is advisable for you to do your own backups occasionally. If you need your data backed up you can also visit the Publishing Centre at the Woodroffe campus.

Network Account for New Staff               specs    faq    glossary

Your Algonquin Network account is effectively a doorway to systems and areas. It allows you to use the College computers, the internet and the academic systems for your courses.

Getting It - As staff at the College you get an NT network account when your paperwork goes through Human Resources. College Network and Email accounts are generated for all new employees (both Part Time and Full Time) once their information is entered into HR/Pay. Your department will no longer have to submit a paper form for this. Supervisors and Managers will receive an email notifying them when an account is created for new staff. 

Otherwise your manager submits an online form to put in the request. Once the request goes in, ITS creates your account and your manager will give you your username and password. Otherwise you can get it at the ITS help desk if you bring one piece of photo ID. The process can take a day or two after your department submits your forms. Managers are still required to fill out the Account Request form if the staff member is one of the following:

  • Residence Staff member
  • Contractor
  • SA Staff member
  • Consultant

Please ensure that as much information as possible is placed within the form prior to submitting.

Domain - You will use that username and password to log onto every system in the College. Note that when you log in you may have to enter your domain (Woodroffe) when logging in.        ie woodroffe/<username>
These systems will be indicated.

orange top Network Account for Staff               specs    faq    glossary

As explained earlier your Algonquin NT network account allows you to access many systems. You will actually have several accounts, one on each system, but most will use this first basic username and password.

Format Your username will have the first six letters of your last name and the first letter of your first name and possibly a digit. (ie for John Smith it may be smithj3. your email address will then be smithj3@algonquincollege.com. Your first password will be a string of letters and digits. Notice that the systems are case sensitive.

Deleting the Account

Network accounts will be deactivated automatically when a Full Time employee is no longer employed by the College, or if a Part Time employee’s authorization has expired. The Supervisor or Manager will be notified via email when this takes place.

Click here to access the Network Account Request information. Please ensure that the information is correct in order to avoid delays.

Account Usage

Staff accounts can be renamed in event of marriage, divorce or other situations.

Add Domain to Logon

 

General User Agreement

Please read the document at this link since you are agreeing to it by using your Algonquin network account.. You are held legally and financially responsible for all activity on the account. So protect it.

Locked Out

If you try and fail to login too many times you will be locked out. Verify your password and try again in 15-30 minutes.

Disabled

Occasionally an account will be disabled for administrative reasons and you will get a message indicating that. Contact ITS in this case.

Add the Domain - Tip

There are times when you log in correctly but it fails and brings up the log on box again.

logon

It may have added some text before your username but what it wants is the domain added to the username. For example in this case we might put the username as:
          woodroffe/haraer.
This tells the system which domain you want to connect to at that time.

Give it a try if nothing else works.

 

Temporary Training Accounts

Because of the effort required to create, delete and maintain a network account there exists a pool of temporary training accounts for students to use for short term courses.

The Facts

  • At Woodroffe the accounts range from wce00001 to wce00500
    At Pembroke they range from pmce00001 to pmtce00080
    At Perth they range from ptce00001 to ptce00040
  • The common password for these accounts is changed every Monday morning and all email, web page and N drive information is deleted. For password information about these accounts please visit the password page.

Domain Consolidation

PLEASE NOTE the following changes for Perth and Pembroke starting SEPT, 2009:

The temporary user ids for PERTH CAMPUS will be changed to WOODROFFE\PTCE0001 through to WOODROFFE\PTCE0040 inclusive. They were PERTH\PCE00001 through to PERTH\PCE00040.

For Pembroke campus the accounts Woodroffe\pmce0001 to pmce0081 have replaced Pembroke\pce00001 to pce00081.
