ctcLink is set to go live at Green River College on October 11, 2021.
Some applications that use the data from these back-end systems will also be replaced in the process. These include, but are not limited to, Degree Audit, Instructor Briefcase and TLR (time and leave reporting).
At this point, the plan is for the ctcLink system to include all enrollment data for students who have been actively enrolled during the past three years. Personnel and payroll data will be converted for employees who have been actively employed during the past year. Financial transaction data will be converted for the current fiscal year only.
Older data will remain available in the legacy system in a read-only version, and some will be available in a data warehouse. At this point, the plan is for the ctcLink system to include all enrollment data for students from the six years prior to the time of conversion. Personnel and payroll data will be converted for the previous two years.

You will receive your ctcLink ID when you activate your account. Most faculty and staff can begin activating their accounts on October 11. Students can begin October 25. Zoom Help sessions will be available for faculty and staff and for students.
What if I attend class or work at more than one college?
The ctcLink system will contain only one account for all of your activities, no matter how many colleges you are associated with. Once you log in, you will be presented with a way to choose which college information you wish to access at that moment.
Is training available for learning ctcLink?
Yes. For many, it will be required. Courses are available indefinitely through Canvas. Faculty and staff looing to begin online self-paced training should visit the ctcLink training page on GatorNet.
The accessibility of ctcLink and its software, PeopleSoft, is critical. While a recent software upgrade has fixed some issues, more remain. Like many colleges implementing ctcLink, Green River College is actively advocating for improvements to be made by the software vendor, Oracle.
