About email addresses in Sakai

Each user has an email address on file in Sakai, which was transferred from Durham Tech's official records system. Emails that your instructor sends you through Sakai will go to this address.

  • For students taking credit classes, your email address in Sakai is your Durham Tech 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.
    • Exception: 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 Non-credit Students and ConnectMail (PDF).
