Company Portal

Company Portal is the location for most applications (apps) available to RRC Polytech staff on their RRC Polytech-issued computer. It provides the way to install, remove, and update software on an easy-to-use interface. This includes Microsoft products and other technical installations through Information Technology Solutions (ITS).

NOTE: Adobe applications can only be installed through Adobe Creative Cloud.

Use the following two links to learn more about Adobe and to install Adobe apps.


Company Portal Highlights

  • It maximizes ITS’s ability to provide installations and updates to thousands of RRC computers.
  • It provides staff with the ability to choose which software to initially install and when to install updates for them.

Before you access Company Portal
