New Employee Account Activation
Accounts for new College employees are automatically created after essential hiring procedures are completed. However, new employees must activate their accounts before they can receive email or access any College service requiring a login.
1 Activate your account
Upon receiving a notification email from ITS, please activate your COCC account by setting your password using the ‘Activate Account’ link in the COCC Password Reset/Manager tool on the Employee Login page. In order to protect your account, the password must be reset every six (6) months.
2 Set up Duo Security to protect your account
COCC has partnered with Cisco's Duo Security to bring Multifactor Authentication (MFA) to campus. Refer to the Duo for COCC Employees webpage to see how you can add Duo and make your accounts more secure.
3 Access your COCC Email account
Email is a primary communication tool at COCC. It is important for you to check your email regularly for timely communication, and to receive important messages from across departments.

Your Bobcat Web Account provides 24/7 access to your employee information, time entry, benefits information, and more. For tutorials on submitting timesheets or viewing pay information, visit the Payroll Reference Manuals webpage.
