== About email addresses in Sakai ==
Each student has an email address in Sakai, which comes from Durham Tech's official records system. Emails that instructors send you through Sakai will go to this address.
* '''For students taking credit classes''', your email address in Sakai is your Durham Tech [https://www.durhamtech.edu/admissions-and-enrollment/activate-connectmail ConnectMail] address.
* '''For students taking non-credit classes''', your email address in Sakai is the personal email address you provided to Durham Tech when you registered.
** <font color="#00843d">'''Exception:'''</font> If you are taking a non-credit class but at some point in the past you applied to a credit program or registered for a credit class, then you have a ConnectMail address and it will be used in Sakai. For more info, see [[media:NonCredit-ConnectMail-forwarding.pdf | Non-credit Students and ConnectMail (PDF)]].
