Internet Explorer at CCV

The web browser Internet Explorer (IE) no longer works on many CCV websites, including our learning management system, Canvas.

Why does Internet Explorer no longer work at CCV?

Microsoft stopped adding feature updates to Internet Explorer and modern websites are unable to run using it. Microsoft will be ending all support including security updates for Internet Explorer on June 15, 2022. Lifecycle FAQ – Internet Explorer and Microsoft Edge

What sites are affected?

The following sites do not work using Internet Explorer. Please note that this is temporary and all sites will be affected.

  • All sites that end in ccv.edu, including:
    • The public website
    • Admissions application
    • Course catalog
    • Fast Forward
    • Northern Lights

What web browser should I use?

Most modern web browsers will work on all CCV sites. CCV IT recommends having at least two on your computer to ensure access.

  • Microsoft Edge — pre-installed on Windows computers
  • Mozilla Firefox — Mac, Windows, and Linux
  • Google Chrome — Mac, Windows, and Linux
  • Safari — pre-installed on Mac computers

Though not officially supported on all CCV websites, many other modern browsers work also, including Vivaldi, and Brave.

I need to use Internet Explorer

IE will continue to receive security updates until June 15, 2022. At that point IE will no longer be considered safe to use. Please contact your IT department with any concerns about this timeline.
