Here are some answers to questions that we get asked frequently. What is ACCUTRACK? The ACCUTRACK computers track attendance and usage of the Learning Center labs on all three campuses. These computers generate reports for LSCC administrators: the software tracks the number of individual students who use the Learning Centers on the different campuses. It also keeps track of student hours and choices of lab services. This information is invaluable for documenting usage and planning for the future of LSCC Learning Centers. All lab users are requested to sign in and out on the Accutrack computer. Do I need an appointment to use the Learning Center labs? No, appointments are not needed. Just visit during scheduled hours. What are the Learning Center hours? When are the Learning Centers open?
