Marion Technical College provides email services to all active, registered students for academic use. Online course instructors will contact the students through their MTC email account only. The email system is Web-based, meaning it is accessed through a standard Web browser, such as Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape. The email system is easy to use with the ability to send text messages, make attachments, and store email addresses for frequent contacts. Access to the email system is available through the web site address of www.mariontech.org, using the same user ID and password scheme as explained above for Blackboard access.
