Signing Into PVCC Accounts: Faculty & Staff

Employees of the Virginia Community College System (VCCS) are provisioned with two accounts, a computing account provided by the individual college (PVCC), and a VCCS account. These two accounts allow access to different systems.

PVCC Accounts

New employees are provided with a PVCC account in the form of an email address, typically in the format of first initial + last name @pvcc.edu. 

With their PVCC account, employees can:

• Sign in to PVCC-issued computers
• Access their email account via Microsoft Office 365, and connect to the VPN (see: Connecting to the VPN )
• Sign in to the website for web editing (see: Editing the PVCC Website )

VCCS Accounts

Employees are also provided with a VCCS account. The username will typically have the format of initials + random string of numbers. 

Tip: If you are a current or former student of a VCCS institution, you may have already been provided with a VCCS account.

With a VCCS account, employees can:

• Access student-centered programs such as Canvas, SIS, and EAB Navigate
• Access Virginia state employee databases like HR and Cardinal (payroll)
• Sign in to Zoom (see: Signing Into Zoom )

All VCCS systems are accessed through the sign-in portal at my.vccs.edu
