Welcome!
The Office of Information Security has outlined a number of guidelines that every computer must meet before being able to connect to the campus network. These guidelines protect both attendee computers and the RIT network from malicious software. Your computer must meet these requirements in order to use our network. Be aware that having network access is a requirement of all PLTW course curricula. If you do not attend to these requirements, you will not be able to use the computing resources that are necessary to complete your course.
Laptop Preparation Utility
After submitting your laptop information, software download instructions will be sent to you. You must complete this process before you are able to download the software needed for training. All software must be installed prior to arriving.
- Login to the laptop you will be bringing with you to the STI.
- Ensure that you have administrative rights to this laptop.
- Right-click here to download the express utility. (You will need to choose "Save Link As..." to download the file to your laptop. Remove the .txt extension if one was added while saving. Then, double click on the PLTW.hta file.)
- The utility will run tests checking for system requirements required for PLTW Software. Should your computer not meet any of the system requirements, the utility will notify you of the necessary upgrades that must be completed.
- Once you have completed all necessary upgrades, you must run the utility again to ensure your computer meets the system requirements.
- Upon successful completion of the utility, please copy and paste the report into the text box below and click the "Submit" button. Please ensure to include your name.
