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.
