Office 365 Coming Soon for Faculty and Staff

ITS is in the process of migrating all LLCC Email accounts for Faculty, Adjuncts, and Staff to Office 365. This should be a seamless transfer of data. Should you experience any technical difficulties, please contact the ITS Service Desk at 786.2555, helpme@llcc.edu or submit a ticket via https://help.llcc.edu.

What does this mean for you?

After migrating your account to Office 365, you will have access to many new tools such as Clutter (Email filtering that helps to prioritize your Inbox), Office 365 online applications (One Drive, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote and Sites) and the ability to install Office 2016 on your personal devices for free. You will continue to use the Outlook desktop application while at work and use the Outlook Web Access when off-campus.

How do I access the Office 365 applications?

You can access all of the Office 365 applications from https://portal.office.com/myapps

You can also access any of the apps while logged into Office 365 by clicking on the Office 365 icon at the top left while logged into email.

How will I know when I have been moved to Office 365?

Please watch for an Email from the ITS department notifying you when the move will take place. Once the migration has been completed, you will access your OWA Email via http://www.llcc.edu, My LLCC and click on Email under the Student section. You will be redirected to Office 365. Select your Email address and it will automatically log you in on-campus when using IE or Chrome. If you are using Firefox for your browser you will be prompted to enter your username and password in the ‘adfs security’ window.

I have been moved to Office 365 and now the link to the Email site does not work for me.

Do I need to update my phone or tablet to access LLCC email?

Yes, your mobile device will need to be updated to continue accessing LLCC email. Click here to find an extensive list of instructions.

Where can I look for more information about Office 365?
