    💬 Getting help

    One account signs you in to all three systems: your tangaza.ac.ke Google account. A personal Gmail account will not work anywhere, and is the single most common reason a colleague or student cannot get in.

    LMS support and staff training come from the Institute Administrator in your department. Staff Portal and theonline-class LMSproblems arego providedto by ICT Support.ICT.
