Staying Connected
First, let's look at a few platforms that can help you stay connected with college resources, your courses and important dates.
- PTC Pathway
PTC Pathway is your gateway to online college services and allows you to access important information as well as a number of college services.
- Find My PTC ID
You should have received a PTC ID via letter from Admissions and when you met with your New Student Advisor. The letter P followed by eight numerical digits, your PTC ID replaces your social security number for all PTC services. Your PTC ID will also be used in the Campus Shop and Library. Memorize your PTC ID. Don’t forget it; write it down! If you don’t know your PTC ID, you can look it up online: www.ptc.edu/pnumber
- Brightspace (D2L)
Students use D2L to submit assignments, take quizzes and collaborate with instructors and classmates. Once registered for a course, students will be added to their D2L courses.
To log in to Brightspace (D2L), navigate to PTC Pathway and click the D2L icon at the top of the page.
