Microsoft 365 is a collection of services that provides you with Microsoft Office applications in the cloud, so you don’t need to physically install them on each PC, laptop or mobile device that you use.
You’ll get an Outlook email account (your official College email), OneDrive cloud storage (1TB), access to Office applications in the cloud and up to 15 physical Office installations across multiple devices. When you log in to Microsoft 365, you’ll see the list of apps and all details.
The service is available to all active students registered in an academic course at Douglas.
From the Douglas College home page, hover over Login at the top right-hand side of the screen and click Microsoft 365 & Email. You’ll be taken to the Microsoft 365 login page. Alternatively, you can go to http://portal.office.com
Some of them are the same ones you use for your assignments: Word, PowerPoint and Excel. The difference is that they’re cloud applications, so it doesn’t matter where you are and if you have the software installed on your computer. As long as you have a mobile device and Internet access, you’ll be able to work on your assignments. Besides, you can also download the applications to up to 15 different devices.
If your legal name has changed, please request the change to the Registrar’s Office. After that, they’ll contact CEIT to make the changes. Please wait for an email from CEIT in your personal email account confirming the change. If you don’t hear back from us after a few days, please contact the Registrar’s Office again.
Check your Junk Email folder. They’re probably there. When you find the messages you’re looking for, select them and click “not junk” at the horizontal menu at the top. By doing it, the emails will be immediately moved to their correct folder. We recommend that you contact the CEIT Service Desk with a copy of the email to explain that your messages are being sent to the Junk Email folder.
