Access and Resources
Use this page as a helpful landing page for acquiring and using the resources available to you while welcome your new employee.
Access Badges
If a new employee will need an access badge to access their workspace, submit a request through FMS ReADY on their behalf. The request for access must be submitted by an Admin (Administrative Assistants, Executive Assistants, IAAs, Office Assistants) or a Manager (Dean, Directors, Managers, Supervisors, VPs). For new employees, make sure to include a passport style photo in .jpeg format. If you do not have a suitable photo to upload, employees may contact Enrollment Services for photo assistance.
For more information, visit the ID Badge Policy. For instructions on submitting access requests for 10 individuals or more, visit Public Safety’s Access Control website.
Brass Keys
If a new employee will need a brass key to access their workspace, submit a request through FMS ReADY on their behalf. The request must be submitted by an Admin (Administrative Assistants, Executive Assistants, IAAs, Office Assistants) or a Manager (Dean, Directors, Managers, Supervisors, VPs). Keys are issued to staff from the campus Public Safety Department offices. Staff must show identification in order to pick up keys.
For more information, and for instructions on reporting lost keys, visit FMS’s Resources website.
Employee ID Card
For employees who do not need an access badge, employee ID cards are available. Employee ID cards are issued the same place as Student ID Cards. To obtain an employee ID card, visit Enrollment Services at any campus.
For more information, visit Employee ID Cards.
G Number
An employee can look up their own unique ID Number (the G Number) by logging into MyPCC and from the Home tab, clicking on ‘My Profile’ under MyPCC Resources. The G Number will appear on the ‘Personal Information’ tab.
To look up another employee’s G Number, see 3 ways to look up a G Number. Banner access is needed.
PCC Username and Email Address
All faculty and staff are assigned a PCC username and @pcc.edu?email address that is tied to their MyPCC account.
New employees who have a past affiliation with PCC (i.e. a past student or employee) will already have a PCC username and email address.
Employees who have never had an affiliation with PCC in the past will be assigned a PCC username and email address once their employee record is activated in Banner.
The username can be used to claim their MyPCC account and access their email account plus other IT services.
Look up an employee’s username by searching for them in the Staff Directory or in Banner page PPAIDEN (the username will be the employee’s Email address minus ‘@pcc.edu’).

MyPCC Account and Google Account
Once an employee has a G Number and PCC username, they are able to claim their MyPCC account and login to access MyPCC, their email account, Google Suite, along with other applications.
To claim the MyPCC account, the new user should visit?MyPCC?and click on ‘First time user?’. Returning users who have forgotten their MyPCC password can reset their MyPCC password by clicking on the ‘Forgot your password?’ option or the ‘Need help logging in to MyPCC?’ option. The user will need their username.
Important information on claiming your MyPCC account
Note:
- If the new employee is a NEW USER, they might need to call the IT Service Desk as they may not have an email address on record that is needed to receive the set up code that allows them to create a new password.
- Once the PCC account is claimed, it can take up to 30 minutes for new employees to be able to access MyPCC and Gmail, along with logging into an on-campus computer. Additionally, it can take up to 24 hours to gain access to additional systems and applications, such as Microsoft 365 and Adobe Creative Cloud.
If after 1 hour, a new employee does not have the access necessary, please reach out to the IT Service Desk at 971-722-4400 or servicedesk@pcc.edu.
