Jump to what you are seeing

Website Down

The BCIT website does not load for you.

  1. Open the page in a private window and on another network.
  2. Check status.bcit.ca for an active incident.
  3. If only your network is affected, contact the IT help desk.

Login Failed

Sign-in to an institute system is refused.

  1. Check the username and password, and that Caps Lock is off.
  2. If the password is refused, reset it through the official account page and check spam.
  3. Try a private window, then contact the help desk with your username. Never send your password.

Brightspace Down

Brightspace does not load, or course pages show errors.

  1. Check status.bcit.ca for a Brightspace incident.
  2. Reload in a private window, and try another browser.
  3. If one course page fails, note its name and the time, and tell your instructor.

Student Portal

The student portal shows an error, or a page does not load.

  1. Reload in a private window, and try another browser.
  2. Check you are signed in with your institute account.
  3. Note the page name and the time, and contact the help desk.

Email Access

Institute email does not send, receive or sync to your device.

  1. Check whether webmail works in a browser. If it does, the problem is your device's mail settings.
  2. Check your mail app has the server settings from the institute's guidance.
  3. If it fails in every app, contact the help desk.

Course Registration

Registration does not open, or a course will not add to your schedule.

  1. Check the registration date and time for your program, and that the course has space.
  2. Check any prerequisites or holds on your record are cleared.
  3. Check status.bcit.ca, and contact the registration office with the course code and the time.

Library Services

A library resource does not open, or it asks you to sign in again.

  1. Check you are signed in with your institute account, and that your access is active.
  2. Open the resource from the library's own site, not an old saved link.
  3. Try a private window, since an old session can cause a sign-in loop.

Still not working?

Contact the BCIT IT help desk first, since it can check your account and devices. Have your username (not your password), the system or page name, the exact error text, the device and browser, and the time with your time zone. Never send your password or student records in a message. Live incident updates are on status.bcit.ca.

Most campus-system problems come from a sign-in step, a network or a browser, and they usually clear once that is sorted. The status page shows incidents for institute services, so you can tell quickly whether the problem is on the institute's side.
