Service

Archiving Service

Available for customers of Enterprise Storage (Dell Isilon) or the Center for Research Computing (CRC), Archiving Service enables University departments and groups to easily archive their seldom accessed data to a more cost-effective cloud storage location provided by Amazon Web Services (AWS). Archive storage costs significantly less than primary storage (Dell Isilon and CRC) — allowing users to free up space on existing file shares while lowering overall storage costs.

Student Technology Perks

Students pay a flat fee per semester, which covers student technology services and many software packages available at no additional cost. 

On-Demand Training (LinkedIn Learning)

Access Extended Until Fall Term for Graduating Students

Pitt IT is pleased to announce that access to LinkedIn Learning for students graduating in the spring term has been extended until the start of the fall term. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we are extending LinkedIn Learning access beyond graduation to assist students with their professional development and career planning.

Canvas replaced CourseWeb (Blackboard Learn) as the University’s learning management system in fall 2020 term.

In late June, all self-service PS Mobile (PeopleSoft Mobile) activity fully transitioned to PeopleSoft/HighPoint Campus Experience (CX). Pitt PS Mobile was retired from service as the application is no longer supported by the vendor.
