OneDrive for Business is JWCC’s collaboration tool for storing and sharing work files. These files can be accessed across anywhere, anytime. In addition, your OneDrive is an excellent area to store any important files. You get 1TB of storage space.

It is important to make sure you log off when you leave a computer in any area of the college, so that others can not access your account.

Quick Start Guide to OneDrive

Accessing your OneDrive

If you are on campus, you can access your OneDrive via a network drive called “OneDrive – John Wood Community College”, which is located in My PC. OneDrive is a storage drive from Microsoft that you can access from any computer on the JWCC campus. You can save information to this drive on one computer, and access it on another computer. It’s safe, secure, and backed up.

Anywhere Access

You will also have access to OneDrive from the BlazerNet LaunchPad. First, access BlazerNet and click on the OneDrive icon. It will automatically log you into OneDrive where you can access your files. You can also access your OneDrive on your mobile device by downloading the OneDrive App from the App Store (iOS) or Google Play Store (Android).

Resources for using OneDrive

Microsoft Teams is a collaboration app that helps your team stay organized and have conversations—all in one place. It’s the replacement for Skype for Business.
