MCLA provides remote access to software using Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD).  This service allows MCLA students, faculty and staff to access license software typically found in our computer labs 24/7, from anywhere. With the ability to access this system with just a web browser, users can have the flexibility to connect using a tablet, phone, Mac, PC, Chromebook. Users also have the ability to download a more robust Remote Desktop client that provides an optimized experience. Because the process is cloud-based, the experience is identical for all users.
Office 365 provides junk mail filtering options for users to stop unwanted e-mail from being delivered to their inbox. There is also an option to report phishing scams by marking them.
