I apologize, however to protect the security and privacy on all Fox Valley Technical College accounts, we do need to verify your identity before I'm able to make changes to your account or exchange any personal information. We would like to speak with you via Microsoft Teams videocall so that we can privately and securely ask you a few questions pertaining to your account information.

On a mobile device, you may be asked to install the free Teams app from your app store.

You will not need to sign-in with your FVTC or Microsoft account. If prompted, please opt to "Continue on this browser" and join the meeting as a guest. Your browser or device may prompt you to "Allow" the use of your camera and microphone, and after you will be prompted to type your name and click Join now.

If you optionally enabled the meeting lobby, you will be notified in the meeting when the student joins that they are Waiting in lobby. During this time, the student will be informed: "We've let people in the meeting know you're waiting." Click the green checkbox when ready to admit them to the meeting.

Complete your videocall interaction in compliance with the Student Identity Verification policy and Student Identity Verification Procedure. Once complete, you may Leave the meeting to end the videocall. Note: If you leave the videocall before the student, be mindful that they'll be left alone in the meeting, so it's best to instruct them how to leave the meeting before you do.
