Access Your Courses and College Announcements on MyCC
MyCC is Coquitlam College’s online learning platform, where you can access all your course materials and important announcements. Each course you enrol in will appear on the platform, and instructors will use it to share details, assignments, and other resources. The College will also post key updates on deadlines, events, clubs, and more directly on your dashboard.
NOTE: If you’ve just registered for the upcoming semester, your courses will appear on the first day of classes.
